    Societal and Economic Impact Evaluation Relu (REFERENCE PS110020) PART TWO Submitted 18 June 2012 Dr. Laura R. Meagher, Technology Development Group RANGE OF TYPES OF IMPACTS (p.2-3) PROJECT CASE STUDIES (p.4-15) PROGRAMME CASE STUDY (p.16-21) ANALYSIS, PROGRAMME-LEVEL COMMUNICATIONS (p.22-28) VIGNETTE: MULTI-FACETED LEADERSHIP (p.29-13) KE OBSTACLES (p.32-33) LESSONS LEARNED BY PARTICIPANTS: ENHANCING IMPACTS (p.34-40) REFLECTIONS ON EVALUATION METHODOLOGY (p. 41-63) 1 RANGE OF TYPES OF IMPACTS Unusually, we have actually been able to elicit and compare researcher and stakeholder views as to types of impacts generated, through not only interviews but also quantifiable survey responses. For each of the five impact types (Conceptual, Instrumental, Capacity- building, Enduring Connectivity and Attitude/Culture Change), researchers and project-level stakeholders were asked about the role of their project, and researchers and programme- level stakeholders were asked about the role of the overall programme. In short, at both the Programme and the Project level, Researchers and Stakeholders saw a range of impacts as having been generated. The conclusion that Relu led to multiple, different types of impacts is robust. For instance, as noted in the Report, even the famously elusive Instrumental Impacts, seen by the lowest percentages, were still seen by a third (34.4%) of Project Stakeholder survey respondents and nearly half (48.6%) of Researchers as having been generated by projects and by over half (54.6%) of Programme Stakeholders and 83.3% of Researchers as having been generated by the Programme. Conceptual Impacts were seen by the highest percentages: as arising from projects by 70.6% of Project Stakeholders and 97.3% of Researchers, and as arising from the Programme by 95.3% of Programme Stakeholders and 88.9% of Researchers.

  • Profits and Potatoes
    Rothamsted Research and the Value of Excellence: A synthesis of the available evidence Report to Rothamsted Research By Sean Rickard October 2015 Séan Rickard Ltd. 2015 1 Forward by the Director and Chief Executive of Rothamsted Research Professor Achim Dobermann Assessing the impact of agricultural research is difficult because science is a complex and lengthy process, with pathways to impact that vary widely. It is common that research and development stages towards new technologies and know-how last 15 or even more years, followed by many more years for reaching peak adoption by farmers and other users of new technology. Adoption is often slow and diffuse, also because unlike in manufacturing many agricultural innovations need to be tailored to specific biophysical and even socioeconomic environments. Some of the many impact pathways may be known well, whereas others are not or are very difficult to quantify. Attribution presents another problem, i.e., it is often very difficult to quantify how much of the observed technological progress or other impact can be attributed to a specific innovation or an institution. Progress in productivity and efficiency is the result of many factors, including technology, knowledge and policy. Even more difficult is to assess the impact of agricultural technology on a wider range of ecosystem services and consumer benefits. Nevertheless, in science we need to be willing to rigorously assess the relevance of our research. In his report, Sean Rickard has attempted to quantify the cumulative impact Rothamsted Research has had through key impact pathways that are most directly linked to its research. The economic approach used is in my view sound, providing a robust framework and a first overall estimate of the wider impact.

  • The Development of Horticultural Science in England, 1910-1930
    The Development of Horticultural Science in England, 1910-1930 Paul Smith Department of Science and Technology Studies University College London Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2016 I, Paul Smith, confirm the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm it has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract This thesis explores how horticultural science was shaped in England in the period 1910-1930. Horticultural science research in the early twentieth century exhibited marked diversity and horticulture included bees, chickens, pigeons,pigs, goats, rabbits and hares besides plants. Horticultural science was characterised by various tensions arising from efforts to demarcate it from agriculture and by internecine disputes between government organisations such as the Board of Agriculture, the Board of Education and the Development Commission for control of the innovative state system of horticultural research and education that developed after 1909. Both fundamental and applied science research played an important role in this development. This thesis discusses the promotion of horticultural science in the nineteenth century by private institutions, societies and scientists and after 1890 by the government, in order to provide reference points for comparisons with early twentieth century horticultural science. Efforts made by the new Horticultural Department of the Board of Agriculture and by scientists and commercial growers raised the academic status of
