摘要:

AbstractIn terms of size and scope of the research activities, the Science and Technology Policy Instruments (STPI) Project is one of the largest research efforts in the developing countries on the subject of how to put science and technology to the service of development objectives. The project was conceived as an exercise inaction-orientedresearch, seeking both to expand the frontiers of knowledge and to provide advice todecision-makers.

AbstractReport of the workshop sponsored by the C~mmittee on Scholarly Communication with the People's Republic of China in Washington DC on February 20 and 21,1975. Dwight Perkins, Professor of Economics and Associate Director for China of the East Asian Research Center at Harvard, was chairman, and members of the CSCPRC Plant Studies Delegation and of the Water Resources Delegation (led by Dr Maurice Albertson of Colorado State University), China scholars and other interested parties attended.Major topics discussed included the current level of agricultural production and the potential for major breakthroughs in productivity through water management, fertilizer application, mechanization, and the development of new seed strains, and the current state of research and education in agriculture and engineering. Through these discussions, particular areas and topics for future exchanges were identified.

摘要:

AbstractAs an independent research agency with its own governing council, the NRC was encouraged to develop a strong Canadian R and D capability and high quality scientific expertise available to government, industry and the private citizen.By the mid-sixties NRC had developed a competent group of laboratories and a multidisciplinary research capability. Through NRC leadership and support, university laboratories had developed strength in most scientific disciplines to the point where it was no longer necessary for Canadian students to seek high quality scientific training outside Canada.

摘要:

AbstractBetween 1951 and 1970, the consumption of nitrogen fertilizers in the countries of the Community more than doubled in Belgium and the Netherlands, tripled in Germany, Luxembourg and Haly, and showed a more than fivefold increase in France: altogether, the countries of Europe (excluding the USSR) consume 38 per cent of world nitrogen production. Developing modem production techniques on this scale poses a threat to agriculture. The European Commission therefore asked a research group, under Professor A Noirfalise (Professor of Ecology at the Gembloux Faculty of Agronomic Sciences), to study the ‘Ecological consequences of applying modem production techniques to agriculture’. The article summarizes his conclusions and recommendations.
