"Basmati" rice is an example of what type of intellectual property?

Answer View answer ▾

Answer: Option A — Geographical indication

Detailed Solution

A Geographical Indication (GI) marks a product whose quality or reputation comes from its place of origin; Basmati rice of the Indo-Gangetic plains is a registered GI in India.

Copyright protects creative works, a trade secret protects confidential business information, and a domain name is a web address, so none fits an agricultural product tied to a region.
