e-infrastructure Roadmap for Open Science in Agriculture

A bibliometric study

The e-ROSA project seeks to build a shared vision of a future sustainable e-infrastructure for research and education in agriculture in order to promote Open Science in this field and as such contribute to addressing related societal challenges. In order to achieve this goal, e-ROSA’s first objective is to bring together the relevant scientific communities and stakeholders and engage them in the process of coelaboration of an ambitious, practical roadmap that provides the basis for the design and implementation of such an e-infrastructure in the years to come.

This website highlights the results of a bibliometric analysis conducted at a global scale in order to identify key scientists and associated research performing organisations (e.g. public research institutes, universities, Research & Development departments of private companies) that work in the field of agricultural data sources and services.

Title

Canadian Agricultural Biotechnology Clusters: Innovation and Performance

en
Abstract

Clusters are frequently seen as an engine of development for modern knowledge-based economics and they have commanded commensurate policy attention. This paper starts with an overview of the main theoretical currents in industrial economics, economic geography, and urban economics related to cluster formation and provides a detailed analysis of clustering in light of evidence on biotechnology clusters and especially, agricultural biotechnology clusters in Canada. The paper also suggests that clusters posc significant questions for government policy in the information upon which to base their clusters strategy and that this information deficit is likely to persist. And while some important policy questions could be answered by more research, others probably cannot. Many policy questions are simply too complex to be answered given the current evaluation techniques available to industrial economists and other social scientists.
