Yes.
Same answer as the forty four times you've asked it in the past.
Research-worth was never the issue. But you already know that from what I have repeatedly stated in the past.
The issue is the downloading.The focus. Researching for whose benefit? As you say, it "becomes who sets priorities, does, who pays, who regulates,"
Will farmers get stuck with the bill, again, paying for useless noodle centres in China that yield Western farmers nothing? Funding ever increasing PhD'ers? When is bloody enough, enough?
I find DA farmers know a wee wee bit about regulation and who pays and compulsion and priorities after 60 years of government regulated who-pays-bullshit.
Farmers noticed that CWB staff and corporate handling agreements were the main benefactors of the scheme.
We don't want top replace one piece of shate with another, do we now.
Should farmers anticipate Research companies panning for farmer-funding so they can continue to patent the profit-research with no ownership responsibility?
Ah, yes, charliep, here's the point where you can start asking if research is important,or if it will rain next Tuesday, or if the cat needs feeding.
Farmers have been heading down the road of overfunding and crossfunding, with too much of it not in farmers' interests. It's in government, companies, and institutional interests.
Regulation becomes a stick of no return, as greedy eyes eye up eventual-compulsory levies.
Grand schemers plan for themselves in the name of the common good, but too often, the only thing the kodiaks of the farmworld get...is the bill.
Farmgate income.
That's farmer focus.
