Riassunto

Resources for agricultural science are scarce across the world. Yet even as budgets are shrinking, agricultural science is expanding its inquiry into many new areas, including environmental preservation, food safety, food quality, and rural development, all in addition to its traditional concerns. Research administrators are now faced with the need to provide strong evidence that costs are justified by benefits. Science Under Scarcity provides invaluable guide to the theory and methods for evaluating research in agriculture and setting priorities for resource allocation.
