摘要:

AbstractIn 1984, a field trip was made to Indian research institutes working on similar problems to those facing agriculture in the author’s own country – Tunisia. India has both produced useful research results over past decades, and also has learnt how to transfer them to villagers and farmers – thus leading to the great increase in food production of recent decades.Some main features of the organisation of agricultural research in India are outlined, together with some details on one specific topic: ways of bringing saline soils back into production.

摘要:

AbstractUp to the OPEC oil price increases of the mid-70s, nuclear power looked ready to generate much electricity. Then came Three Mile Island, a drop in orders (if not a halt), and few prospects for new orders in the 1990s.Is the demise due to poor technology, TMI, and the opposition groups? This first SPP briefing, by Steve Thomas, argues that it is due to rising nuclear costs and static demand for electricity. The nuclear decline could have happened regardless of any public fears of the technology.
