Agricultural Research Alternatives

Clearly, the debate is no longer over agricultural sustainability as a legitimate goal, but about how to fulfill that goal.

They also propose reforms in institutional aspects of agricultural research?the organization of academic departments, evaluation of professional achievement, functioning of grant programs, and the education of agricultural researchers.
