Description
Srinivas:
“A biolinux model can be applied for the development of plant varieties, agro machinery and sharing of information and knowledge. A biolinux model . . . [is] as follows. The variety will be made available with a GPL or similar document explicitly stating rights and claims. . . . There will be no restriction on using [the variety] to develop new varieties or to experiment with but it is essential that the variety derived from this should also be available without any monopolistic claims and restrictions on further development. . . . [An] agency [could] coordinate [to bring] together breeders and farmers . . . . There could be a common pool to which farmers can contribute [and] . . . also exchange materials with others under Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs).”). (http://ssrn.com/abstract=1390273)
