ASTI Liberia database

This dataset contains national-level data on financial, human, and institutional resources for agricultural research and development (R&D). Accurate, reliable, and internationally comparable quantitative information on investments, human capacity, and the institutional structure of agricultural R&D is fundamental to understanding the contribution of research to agricultural growth in low- and middle-income countries. Providing such data is the mission of IFPRI’s Agricultural Science and Technology Indicators (ASTI) program. Through its large network of national, regional, and international partners, ASTI collects and analyzes data from government, higher education, nonprofit, and (where possible) private-sector agencies involved in agricultural R&D. The program conducts ongoing analysis of these datasets; disseminates the results of this analysis to promote advocacy and support policymaking; and builds national and regional capacity for data collection and analysis.This data was collected in 2014 and made it to Dataverse in 2015.

本数据集收录农业研究与开发（Research and Development，简称R&D）领域的国家级财政、人力与制度资源数据。精准可靠且具备国际可比性的农业研发投入、人力能力及制度结构量化信息，是理解研究对中低收入国家农业增长贡献的核心基础。提供此类数据，正是国际粮食政策研究所（International Food Policy Research Institute，简称IFPRI）下属农业科学技术指标（Agricultural Science and Technology Indicators，简称ASTI）项目的使命所在。该项目依托覆盖国家、区域与国际层面的广泛合作网络，从参与农业研发的政府、高等院校、非营利机构及（可行范围内）私营部门机构收集并分析相关数据。本项目持续对上述数据集开展分析工作，传播分析成果以助力政策倡导与决策制定，并着力构建国家与区域层面的数据收集与分析能力。本数据集采集于2014年，2015年上传至Dataverse平台。数据文件访问链接：http://www.asti.cgiar.org/liberia
