Gazette of the Board for plant varieties April 2024 is published

Every year, the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food Security and Nature sets the fees of the Board for plant varieties for the following year. These fee proposals are made by Naktuinbouw and the Board for plant varieties jointly. The attached notice deals with the proposed application fees for plant breeders' rights and admission and DUS-testing for 2025.

The Gazette is the government publication sheet. The new Gazette is published every month.

Your applications for listing and/or plant breeders’ rights in the Netherlands for marrow (courgette) bush types can be submitted to the Board for Plant Varieties until April 1st. The DUS identity material can be sent in until April 15th. This better matches the preparation of the trial at Naktuinbouw.
