R. J. Hildreth and Roland R. Robinson

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1969, vol. 1, issue 1, 151-158

Abstract: An attempt will be made to indicate: (1) the future needs for social scientists, in general, and agricultural economists, in particular, for research in the land-grant institutions and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, (2) the location of these needs for agricultural economists, and (3) the types of research activities that are gaining in relative importance in the social sciences. The quantitative and qualitative information presented should provide some guidance in locating professional research workers where they are most needed.Let us examine the present and prospective allocation of social scientists among the various areas of research activity, as well as the relative importance of these areas.
