Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs)

Learn how Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs) facilitate the movement of research materials, aiding in the development and testing of new cultivars. Discover the essential role of MTAs in governing transfers and ensuring the efficient progress of cultivar development. Explore the process involving field-based and laboratory research, field trials, and the years-long endeavor to bring new cultivars to fruition. Enhance your understanding of the complex contractual sideboards governing cultivar development through MTAs and the continuous efforts to increase productivity and streamline the MTA process.

  4. New Cultivar Development Lengthy process that may take years to decades depending on the crop Cutting-edge field-based and laboratory research Field trials and movement of research material (cultivars and germplasm under development)

  5. New Cultivar Development Lengthy process that may take years to decades depending on the crop Cutting-edge field-based and laboratory research Field trials and movement of research material (cultivars and germplasm under development) Material transfer agreements (MTAs) set the conditions of movement of research material

  6. Material Transfer Agreements Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs) are contracts governing transfer of research materials Establish sideboards on use of material Essential part of the cultivar development process Hundreds of MTAs processed by FAES to facilitate developing and testing of new cultivars Increasing staffing to increase productivity and efficiency of MTA process, and establishing implementing new metrics for MTA process evaluation
