Nutrition Research Alternatives by United States. Congress. Office of Technology Assessment Pdf

The OTA (Office of Technology Assessment) reports that the Federal Government has failed to adjust the emphasis of its human nutrition research activities to deal with changing U.S. health problems. Three key issues in changing policy are: 1) maintain the status quo; 2) make small alterations in the system; or 3) change the emphasis of federally fundednutrition research based on OTA, General Accounting Office (GAO) or Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) recommendations for strategies and options. Each strategy details research priorities, definition and funding, personnel requirements and proposed research organization. More information is needed on Federal expenditures and available personnel. Provision must be made for public nutrition education and food programs that emphasize the application of existing knowledge.

Progress Made in Federal Human Nutrition Research Planning and Coordination by United States. General Accounting Office Pdf

Abstract: An overview of progress in coordinating Federal nutrition research efforts and identifying areas in need of improvement are provided. Much progress has been made within and among Federal human nutrition research departments and agencies since Congress called for improved coordination in the Food and Agriculture Act of 1977. It is recommended that such coordination efforts continue and that agencies and departments plan their research efforts in conjunction with other Federal supporters of nutrition research to avoid duplication or inadequate coverage. The director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy should direct the Joint Subcommittee on Human Nutrition Research to develop a Federal nutrition research plan with input from agencies and departments which engage in human nutrition research.

Agricultural Research Alternatives by William Lockeretz,Molly DelCarmen Anderson Pdf

Clearly, the debate is no longer over agricultural sustainability as a legitimate goal, but about how to fulfill that goal. Research is a vital factor contributing to the creation of a sustainable agriculture. Entrenched ideas about the way agricultural research is conducted have been challenged by farmers, environmentalists, food-safety advocates, rural activists, and others. ø William Lockeretz and Molly D. Anderson meet these challenges and chart a reasoned course through the fray. They analyze the potential and the limits of various research approaches associated with alternative agriculture: multidisciplinary research, application of ecological principles in understanding agricultural systems, emphasis on the use of agricultural information, use of working farms as research sites, and the involvement of farmers in agricultural research. They also propose reforms in institutional aspects of agricultural research?the organization of academic departments, evaluation of professional achievement, functioning of grant programs, and the education of agricultural researchers.
