search through journal, CGIAR - the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research, established in 1971 - is a consortium of international, national and private agencies, through which 13 international agricultural research centres and related institutions are funded. The emphasis, clearly, is on the word "international", and the centres specialise in work which needs the facilities that can best be provided by large, well equipped, international institutions - although the results of their work reach farmers through national sources. At the time of the groups' tenth anniversary, Professor Bunting considers its history and structure and assesses its achievements, its problems and its prospects.
