Measuring agricultural biotechnology research capacity in four developing countries
Abstract
In 1998, the International Service for National Agricultural Research (ISNAR) conducted a biotechnology research indicator survey of four national agricultural research systems—in Mexico, Kenya, Indonesia, and Zimbabwe. Some of the policy recommendations proposed to overcome the identified limitations in conducting biotechnology research include: an increase of investment levels in agricultural biotechnology, the promotion of the private sector's involvement, and the development of a comprehensive strategy.
