Book excerpt: The Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) was established in 1971 to support the Rockefeller and Ford Foundations in funding four international agricultural research centres in Colombia, Mexico, Nigeria and the Philippines. As the first global programme to receive grants from the World Banks net income, the CGIAR now consists of 16 autonomous international centres, with a membership of 62 countries, including 24 developing and transition economies. This report evaluates the work of CGIAR and makes several recommendations to address the future challenges it faces in promoting agricultural research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major complex problems confront agricultural policy analysts and development specialists regarding the broad issue of 'agricultural technology.' These topics are reviewed in this volume which consists of 37 chapters, developed from papers presented at a conference held at Airlie House, Virginia, near Washington DC. The authors include leading international authorities from the academic sector, World Bank and agricultural research centers. The chapters are grouped into six parts. The first introductory part is followed by investment as the focus of Part II. In Part III a variety of conceptual and practical issues involved in the transfer of agricultural technology is considered. Part IV includes discussions of concrete technical matters ranging for example from the general to the specific, from plant to animal, and from soil management to irrigation engineering. Emphasis moves from the specifically technological to wider policy issues in Part V and this latter thrust is carried through into the final summarizing section.

Book excerpt: After decades of neglect, the agricultural sector in many countries of Latin America is receiving renewed attention. As part of this, the establishment and consolidation in Latin America of three international centers funded through the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) account for a small but significant part of the growth in agricultural research. The importance of the centers lies not in the additional funding they bring, but rather in their collaboration with national research programs. There is increasing evidence that these centers have helped to expand the capacity of many national programs, especially in the numerous smaller countries. Their sustained funding, apolitical nature and international scientific linkages have added an important dimension to the region's own enhanced capacity for agricultural research. The accelerated growth in the yields and output of staple foods in Latin America achieved over the past decade is striking testimony to the strengthened national research programs which are receiving, testing, adapting and releasing technologies developed through their collaboration with international centers.

Book excerpt: This report describes a study of the collaboration between international agricultural research centers and the national agricultural research system of Cuba, a project that was conducted by the authors as part of the worldwide Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) impact study. Collaboration between the Ministry of Agriculture (MINAG) and the CGIAR system started with the International Agricultural Research Center for Rice (IRRI) in 1967, with the International Center of Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) in 1977, with the International Potato Center (CIP) in 1981 and with the International Center for the Improvement of Maize and Wheat (CIMMYT) in 1982. Germplasm exchange, training and visits are the main activities. Collaboration is considered mature with IRRI and CIAT on rice, and with CIAT on beans, cassava and pastures. Collaboration is considered developing with CIP on potatoes and CIMMYT on maize, and incipient with the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) on sorghum, International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) on malanga and CIP on sweet potatoes. CIAT has built up an extensive system of contacts in Cuba in all four of its programs. It also facilitates the operations of other CGIAR institutes.

Book excerpt: Since collaborative research between Thailand and the CGIAR system was initiated in the early 1960s, many benefits have been derived at both the national and the farm level. Benefits to the National Agricultural Research System have been brought about by organizational changes, enhancement of researchers' capability, provision of genetic materials, and improvements in the methodology of research. All these have resulted in the speedier transfer of benefits to the farm level. It is estimated that the development of rice and corn varieties has benefitted at least 30 percent of all farm families. Research administrators and principal scientists have indicated high regard for this collaborative effort.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary role of international public agricultural research is undoubtedly to address key social, environmental, and economic goals at the global level. Further, there is consensus that investment must be accelerated in research-based innovations focusing on sustainable food systems. And given the relatively weak situation of many national agricultural research systems in the global South, it is imperative to reach economies of scale in investments in international initiatives. It is not yet clear, however, how much additional investment is needed or how scarce resources should be allocated across priority research-for-development challenges. At the international level, growing consensus indicates that—in addition to increasing funding—far greater harmonization is needed in funding and executing research in order to more effectively tackle global agricultural research challenges. Growing opportunities for technology spillovers and research alliances to occur across national, regional, and international boundaries necessitates the ability to access new technological knowledge from a variety of sources. And since access to new technologies is closely related to the capacity to generate new technologies, the need to strengthen and harmonize national, regional, and global research systems becomes even more of a priority. Although the role, contributions, and impacts of the CGIAR have been analyzed by many authors, only a few have summarized the recent evolution of its financing. This note is intended to contribute to reflections on the CGIAR’s first 50 years, which it will celebrate in 2021, while also providing a useful reference for the current “One CGIAR” governance and management transformation.
