PERELMUTER, Tamara. Propiedad intelectual en semillas: los dispositivos del cercamiento jurídico en Argentina. Mundo agrar. [online]. 2018, vol.19, n.42, pp.99.e1-99.e2. ISSN 1515-5994.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/15155994e99.

The objective of this article is to examine the way in which legal enclosure processes are expressed around seeds in Argentina. From bibliographical analysis, legislation and interviews to key informants, a proliferation and complexity of devices is identified: the Law of Seeds and the various attempts to modify it; attempts to patent transgenic seeds; the disputes over the collection of the RR soybean royalties; the bilateral contracts signed by Monsanto and the producers in relation to the Intacta soybean; and the resolutions tending to reduce the own use of the seeds. These processes did not occur in a linear way and were crossed by tensions and conflicts. The problematic is still open and, therefore, the seeds in Argentina are an element of important debates and multiple disputes.
