美国农业研究现状及发展方向

摘要

美国强大的农业实力得益于其长期以来对农业研发的支持。长期以来，美国已建立了多渠道的农业研发投入体系和多主体的农业研发执行体系。通过分析、探讨目前美国的农业研究状况，发现其也存在一些问题，如，农业研发投入长期停滞不前，竞争性研发资金比例过小，农业与其他领域的结合不够紧密等；但从发展方向看，美国农业研发投入有望增长，竞争性研发经费的比例也有望增加，这将进一步提升美国农业研究在全球的领先地位。%Agricultural R&D has been a major driver of the competitiveness of the United States. This paper examines the American agricultural R&D system which is composed of multiple investment sources and many different types of performers. It can be seen that some problems exist in the US agricultural R&D, such as, investment on agricultural R&D bogged down for a while, proportion of expenditure on competitive R&D grants is relatively small, agriculture sectors are not well connected with other sectors, etc. The challenges are explored and the solutions to these issues are discussed.
