Abstract
Climate change is evolving at both a speed and magnitude that necessitates oil palm adaptation through innovation. This study both tracks and synthesises climate change adaptation patents applicable to oil palm cultivation. Oil palm patent applications filed between 1960 and 2022 were analysed through a network analysis, and compared to patents applied for soybean, rapeseed, and sunflower sectors. Findings indicate that the existing pool of oilseed adaptation patents is small. Oil palm adaptation patents primarily focus on and are concentrated on novel process innovation in plant breeding and biomass recycling techniques. Soybean patents cover both modern plant breeding technologies and plant varieties. By comparison, patent references to oil palm adaptation patents are fewer in number. These findings reveal a mismatch between oil palm adaptation requirements and technological availability knowledge. The oil palm research and development community are encouraged to better secure and disseminate intellectual property (IP) rights in order to inform adaptation diffusion and planning
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
