估算了尼泊尔小麦育种研究在绿色革命时期(1960-1990)和后绿色革命时期(1990年后)的投资回报,发现主要收益来自抗病性维持和外来种质快速传播,部分得益于邻国和国际农业研究中心的溢出效应。

Abstract

Abstract Returns to investment in wheat breeding research in Nepal were estimated for two periods: (1) the Green Revolution period (1960–1990), when modern semidwarf wheat varieties first appeared and spread throughout the country, and (2) the post‐Green Revolution period (after 1990), when first‐generation modern varieties will be replaced by newer materials. Major benefits of the Nepalese wheat breeding program have included maintenance of disease resistance and faster dissemination of exotic germplasm. Attractive rates of return to investment in wheat breeding have been due in part to Nepal's ability to capture spillover benefits from neighboring countries and from international agricultural research centers.
