DescriptionWhat does scientific research contribute to New Zealand society? Scientific research is like the oil business. Many holes may be drilled; but only a few will yield oil. The true return from oil exploration must be based on the total cost of the operation, not just the cost of drilling the successful well. Similarly, returns to research must be based on all the investments made, not just on those projects with successful, easily identifiable outcomes. Project: Understanding the contributions of scientific research to New Zealand society. Researchers: Associate Professor Bill Kaye-Blake, Professor Paul Dalziel, Professor Caroline Saunders, Dr Garth Carnaby.PeopleBill Kaye-Blake | Paul Dalziel | Caroline Saunders | Garth CarnabyPersonBill Kaye-BlakePaul DalzielCaroline SaundersGarth CarnabyOrganisationLincoln UniversityDate2011-2012Keywordsresearchscientific researchenvironmental impactseconomic factorsFilenameWhat does scientific research contribute to New Zealand society?SourceTransform 2011-2012 page 76.Faculty / Research CentreAgribusiness and Economics Research UnitItem Reference0001266
