I am conducting research on the topic ‘Impact of Plant Patent and License Values on the Growth of the Strawberry Industry in the USA’ under the supervision of Dr. Jayesh Samtani. I am interested in the legal and economic variables affecting the strawberry industry and I believe that more research should be conducted that could improve this strawberry industry in the USA. Would you be willing to assist me in studying these issues?
