Directions: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions (46 – 60)
according to the information there in. Each question has four choices,
A – D. Choose the best alternative and blacken the letter of our choice
on the separate answer sheet provided.
Social media was in frenzy when news regarding a case concerning the ‘Teff’ patent was won in
Netherlands. It did not help that the court decision, accessible online, was in Dutch, nor did it help that
there was different positions coming from different government offices. And, as this confusion was
getting to people, my favorite thing about social media happened: people started sending each other
figure it out. To be honest, these are the dates that I am grateful for social media. So below is pieced
together information from social media that has helped me get clarity on the patents on ‘Teff’.
The Dutch courts rendered a judgment on November 11th, 2018 on a case that concerned ‘Teff’
patents. The case is a follows, a company called Ancientgrain, owner of the ‘Teff’ patents sued another
company called Bakels. The suit was based on Ancientgrain’s claim that Bakels, a baking company, is
using the ‘Teff’ processing method that it has patented without getting any permission from it, therefore
it is infringing the patent. Ancientgrain was thus claiming that Bakels pay it damaged from
infringement and stop processing ‘Teff’ in that manner until it gets its permission. Bakels main defense
rested on the argument that the procession patents owned by Ancientgrain are not original or inventive,
therefore this patent should be invalid.
The court’s decision was that the ‘Teff’ processing patents owned by Ancientgrain lack inventiveness
and are based on public domain, i.e. knowledge that is common among people; therefore it declared
both patents invalid. It therefore ruled in favor of Bakels, stating that there can be no infringement on
an invalid patent. As per the tweets of the Netherlands Embassy, this court is the competent court to
invalidate patents and it has officially made the Dutch ‘Teff’ patents null and void.

But these patents have been registered in Spain, Germany, Italy, France and the United Kingdom. So,
this court decision is more like, 1 down and 5 more to go. But in a Dutch newspaper published the day
after the court’s decision came into effect, the legal representative for Bakels stated that now that the
Dutch ‘Teff’ patents have been invalidates, his clients will now begin the process of getting those in the
remaining 5 European countries invalidated as well, by applying for enforcement of the Dutch courts
judgment that it has secured.

What does this mean for us? This is fantastic news for Ethiopia as we are no longer in a situation where
[

we have to fight to get these patents scrapped off. They have been hanging over our heads for the past
15 years and now luckily for us we are in a situation where, without spending a penny, we are getting
what we want, all of the ‘Teff’ patents invalidated. But, we should not be fooled by our lucky strike;
firstly, what happened with the ‘Teff’ patent is proof that we do not have adequate methods to protect
our natural and national resources. The second point is that, we have to have better and quick response
mechanisms for such matters. Keeping and protecting our natural and national assets should be a
priority and not an afterthought. And lastly, we have many specialized experts on this matter in our
country who have a vested interest in this cause, we should get them involved in assisting with closing
these gaps.

This also means that we can now have our attention from a defensive mode to a protective mode,
meaning we can now start thinking about what intellectual property methods we can use to better own
our precious resources: ‘Teff’. Might I suggest trademarking the word itself and perhaps a geographic
indication related IP?

The most interesting information I came across while following up on this Teff related matter is that the
largest exporter of Teff is South Africa. I hope that this experience is a huge learning opportunity of the
prominence of this grain and how we must begin to insert ourselves in the market.
