The International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV) is an intergovernmental organization, established in 1961 by the International Convention for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (the "UPOV Convention").
The mission of UPOV is to provide and promote an effective system of plant variety protection, with the aim of encouraging the development of new varieties of plants, for the benefit of society.
The UPOV Convention provides the basis for members to encourage plant breeding by granting breeders of new plant varieties an intellectual property right: the breeder’s right.
UPOV is administrated by WIPO.
