Plant Variety Rights Act
As part of our commitment to The Owners of the PVR
material we are licensed to grow in New Zealand and
to fulfil our contract with them we assure them certain
criteria are being met by our growers or these plants.
We have been very lenient about this in the past
but a few problems have now arisen which have necessitated
a tidy up in this area.
Could you please take a moment to familiarise yourself
of your commitment as a PVR Grower.
Plant Production Ltd has received from the owner’s
exclusive rights to cultivate and
sell plants of their varieties within New Zealand
under Plant Variety Rights. Plant Production Ltd
wishes to give its client, the grower rights to grow
and sell any or all of the varieties listed under
PVR, in this catalogue, that they agree to purchase
under the rules of this agreement as below.
- This is a non-propagation agreement excluding
all propagation.
- Plant Production Ltd agrees to sell to The Grower
the plants listed in this catalogue under Plant
Variety Rights to grow and sell anywhere in New
Zealand on the condition the agreement conditions
are meet.
- The Grower agrees that every plant of the varieties,
under PVR, sold, donated or made available to
any third party by any other means whatsoever shall
carry the correct descriptive label on each plant
as supplied by Plant Production Ltd
- In the event that a mutation, or sport, should
develop from any of the varieties during the
term of the plant breeder’s rights, such
rights of the mutation shall remain the property
of Plant Production Ltd.
- The Grower shall advise Plant Production Ltd
within seven (7) days of the discovery of the
mutation or sport and The Grower shall maintain
the mutation until instructions for handling are
received in writing from the Licensor.
- The Grower agrees to monitor sales of the varieties
under PVR, in New Zealand so as to prevent unauthorised
sales, and to notify Plant Production when
sales of the varieties are made by authorised or
unauthorised parties where plants are incorrectly
labelled.
- The Grower shall use his best endeavours to
promote sales of the varieties, under PVR, and
to maintain a high standard of cultivation and
presentation of the varieties.
PVR is here to help protect our industry and give
that extra benefit to the growers who support us.
