Funding Innovation - A Technology Value System

The Concept The Concept

  • Established in regulation associated with new PBR

Act

  • Apply to all cereals protected with PBR under new Act
  • Indicators of success – to determine the value of the

t lt bli h d 5 system – results published every 5 years

  • 2 components

1 Flat rate delivered grain royalty $Cdn 1 50/Tonne 1. Flat rate delivered grain royalty $Cdn 1.50/Tonne 2. Refund for producers who purchase certified seed

  • Monitoring and testing to help prevent misdeclaration
  • Cooperation of the entire value chain
