Tipo de material: ArtículoArtículoEditor: Montevideo (Uruguay) 1998Descripción: p. 31-53.Otro título: Guidelines for designing new organization and funding ways for agricultural and agroindustrial innovation systems in the Southern Cone.Tema(s): INVESTIGACION | APOYO A LA INVESTIGACION | INVERSIONES | SISTEMAS NACIONALES | RESEARCH | RESEARCH SUPPORT | INVESTMENT | RECHERCHE | SOUTIEN DE LA RECHERCHE | INVESTISSEMENT | SISTEMAS NAC DE INVESTIGACIONResumen: Several factors converged in the late 1960s and early 1970s to stimulate rapid growth in investment in agricultural research. First, the success of the Green Revolution demonstrated the potential of science-based agriculture in the developing world. Second the Green Revolution was closely followed by the world food crisis of the 1970s which further underlined the need to stimulate rapid growth in food production. Third, several pioneering economic studies showed the high payoff to investment in agricultural research and the role of rapid technical change in agriculture in stimulating overall economic growth. Together, these factors spurred an increase in public investment in agricultural research between 1966-70 and 1980-85 of 6 percent annually. Rapid growth in agricultural research expenditures occurred in all regions with the fastest growth in developing countries. (MV)
