الوصف: | Representing the major academic disciplines involved in grassland research • agronomy, animal science and agricultural economics the authors discuss the benefits and pitfalls of interdisciplinary research. Factors discouraging interdisciplinary research include: (1) discipline chauvinism, (2) the time and effort required for communications .and co-ordination, (3) inadequate credit for multiple authorship and (4) importance of disciplinary research. However, link among disciplines are necessary because clientele commercially producing forage need information integrating agronomy, animal science, economics and other disciplines. Benefits of interdisciplinary research are ( I) stimulating highly specialised scientists to plan, perform and interpret their research in the context of whole-farm or ranch systems; (2) providing more specialised and more integrated information than would be provided by researchers working in isolation; and (3) increasing net research output. In contrast to disciplinary research, typically disseminated as subsections of Information needed by grassland producers, interdisciplinary research integrates information from multiple disciplines Into whole-farm systems. |
