Project: The market for Franklin Barley: market characteristics, competition and the value of plant breeders rights (2003 - 2004)

Client: Corsers Solicitors

Summary: The aim of the project was to confirm that there existed a “market” within Australia in Franklin barley. This was achieved by identifying its characteristics and determinants in terms of participants, geography, goods and services and competition, etc., confirming that the NSWGB, ABB, and GPWA were in competition with each other in that market and commenting on the value of plant breeder rights.
