The National Agricultural Seeds Council has commenced the implementation of Plant Variety Protection Act 2021, with the aim of protecting intellectual properties, protection for plants and to ensure food productivity.
On May 21, 2021, the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), signed the PVP Bill into law after it was passed by the House of Representatives on December 17, 2020 and the Senate on March 3, 2021 following several months of deliberation.
Recently, the Nigerian Economic Summit Group said the implementation of the Plant Variety Protection Act would help Nigeria to generate over $2bn from seeds export.
