    Food Security and Intellectual Property Rights –
    (LAP Lambert Academic Publishing, 2013-01-01) Muredzi, Perkins; Sackey, Emmanuel
    This book gives an understanding of the relationship between IPRs and Food Security, the current status of food security in Sub Saharan Africa and discusses the issues and concerns regarding IPRs and Food Security. It also considers the question of sui generis protection from the perspective of food security. It examines the extent to which existing IPRs can fulfill the twin goal of promoting technological development and food security. It also examines further options that are open to Sub-Saharan Africa countries under the TRIPS Agreement and beyond the TRIPS Agreement, taking into account other treaties such as the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (International Treaty on PGRFA).
