The Martonvásár research institute applies for patents for all the varieties and hybrids developed by the breeding departments in order to protect variety rights. This patenting system is compatible with European Unions’s practice, and is also becoming increasingly accepted in non-EU countries, thus promoting the efficient protection of Martonvásár varieties and of the intellectual property rights of their breeders.
