Abstract
Plant Variety Protection (PVT) is a part of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) which is highly needed in agriculture in Indonesia. Regulations on the Protection of Plant Varieties are contained in Law No. 29 of 2000 concerning Protection of Plant Varieties. The drafting of the PVP Act should protect the rights of breeders (Breeder’s Rights) and may not damage the farmers' privileges (Farmer's Privilege). However, there are still cases regarding the Protection of Plant Varieties which in their settlement do not use the PVP Law. This study uses normative juridical methods with qualitative analysis. The data in this study are secondary data obtained from primary, secondary and tertiary legal entities. Furthermore, these data are analyzed using qualitative data analysis methods. The results showed that the regulation of PVP in the PVP Law in Indonesia is still unclear and balanced in regulating between Breeder’s Rights and Farmer Rights. It is also known that there are still many plant breeders who have not yet registered plant varieties for their breeding, due to the complexity and high cost of PVP registration.
