The verdict
National holds 29 US patents across 25 technology areas, rank #10,697 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
National Agriculture AND FOOD Research Organization has been granted 29 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing National Agriculture AND FOOD Research Organization at rank #10,697 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 25 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 7.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in A01K (ANIMAL HUSBANDRY; AVICULTURE; APICULTURE; PISCICULTURE; FISHING; REARING OR BREEDING ANIMALS, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR; NEW BREEDS OF ANIMALS). As a Foreign Corporation, National Agriculture AND FOOD Research Organization is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, National sits between Movellus Circuits Inc. (29 patents, rank #10,693) and Nsk-warner K.k. (29 patents, rank #10,701) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 44.3/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 24 grants, compared with 5 in the 2015–2019 window, a +380% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. National Agriculture AND FOOD Research Organization's 7.1 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 25 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark National Agriculture AND FOOD Research Organization against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
National's 29 grants land it in the top 26% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
