Material type: materialTypeLabelArticlePublisher: 2004Description: p.5327-334.Subject(s): Research centres | Scientific cooperation | Research and development | Public private partnership | Public enterprises | Agricultural research In: Economic and Political WeeklySummary: This paper broadly explores the hypothesis that scientists working together for a common cause can do wonders in a group, if the system is fairly transparent and institutionalised. As a case study, it assesses the synergetic effects of partnership research in public sector R&D in India, with the all-India coordinated rice improvement programme as an example. The study finds that the partnership mechanism of AICRIP has played an important role through free interstate and inter-institutional movement of improved germplasm, which has accelerated the adoption of modern varities of rice for cultivation in many parts of India. - Reproduced.
