Kazakhstan’s Aport
apples may be included in the list of geographical indications of countries.
This apple variety was presented at the Assembly of the World Intellectual
Property Organization (WIPO) in Geneva. According to the Kazakh Ministry of
Justice, registering Aport as a geographical indication will provide a number
of benefits. Firstly, it will protect the unique characteristics and quality of
the product, which are closely linked to specific natural and climatic
conditions of a particular region in Kazakhstan. Additionally, it will prevent
unauthorized use of the Aport name for apples grown in other locations.
Furthermore, it will enhance the recognition and authenticity of this apple
variety in the international market. As noted by the relevant ministry,
including Aport in the list will play a significant role in the development of
agriculture and support for producers. This initiative aims to drive economic
growth, promote tourism, and provide support to agricultural producers.
