Title A name given to the resource Intellectual property rights vis-a-vis food security: A critical analysis Subject The topic of the resource Agriculture; Biotechnology; Developing nations; Food security; Intellectual property Description An account of the resource The Right to Food is undoubtedly a human right since it is one of the basic necessities without which it is impossible to sustain life. Food Security refers to the availability as well as accessibility to sufficient and quality food by all individuals. However, there persists a problem of food insecurity which is a major problem especially in the underdeveloped and, to a considerable extent, the developing countries. At an individual level, food security is limited to one's access to food but on a broader sense food security cannot be isolated from agricultural policies, crop technologies, economic and trade conditions. The intersection of crop technologies with economic factors is what links food security with Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). Over the recent past, IPR has gained immense importance in a number of fields including agriculture. It provides the incentive for the private sector development in advancement of plant science and crop technologies which helps in ensuring food security in the long term. This study aims at discussing the issues of food security with a specific focus on the developing nations, IPR regime, and its introduction into the agriculture sector. It intends to explore the connections and linkages between IPR and food security, especially how intellectual property can act as a medium to cover the path toward achieving global food security. The author aims to put forth the ability of IPR as a means to achieve food security by incentivising human creativity through a detailed study from an international as well as region-specific perspective. 2023 Apple Academic Press, Inc.
