What changed and who it applies to
What changed
Resolución Conjunta 3/2026 (INASE + Secretariat of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries), under the Seeds and Phytogenetic Creations Ley 20.247, establishes a protocol for controlling the varietal identity of the grain from samples taken at the first delivery point. The samples are analyzed by Arbitration Chambers and authorized private entities with an INASE agreement; the result is notified to the holder of the variety registered in the National Registry of Cultivar Property, who can report infringements to INASE. It reinforces traceability and the protection of intellectual property over germplasm. It does not create an 'extended royalty' regime or a self-use sworn statement. verif Jun 8, 2026 ↗

Who it applies to
The entire grain chain: holders of registered varieties (seed companies/breeders), producers and the establishments that function as the grain's first delivery point (storage facilities, cooperatives), which become obliged to register in SISA. It enables an oversight role for Arbitration Chambers and private laboratories with an INASE agreement. verif Jun 8, 2026 ↗

Our reading
More legal security for seed genetics: by controlling the grain's varietal identity at the first delivery point, the rule reinforces the property rights over phytogenetic creations and improves the incentive to invest in better genetics (rule R4). Honest precision: the official announcement presented it as a 'free choice' mechanism for the producer, but the Official Gazette text makes it mandatory for the delivery points; and the figure of '+USD 4,000 M in annual exports' is a political estimate with no cited technical study and unconfirmed, not a data point. thesis
