INTERNATIONAL CENTER FOR AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH IN THE DRY AREAS (ICARDA)1
1 This MTA covers materials which are being transferred before the entry into force of the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture. The Treaty envisages that ICARDA will enter into an agreement with the Governing Body of the Treaty, once the Treaty enters into force. ICARDA has indicated its intention to conclude such an agreement with the Governing Body. This agreement, in line with the Treaty, will provide for new MTAs and benefit-sharing arrangements for materials transferred after the entry into force of the agreement. |
