Most of the contribution towards R&D in the agriculture sector comes from the public sector.

Now the time has come to increase private sector participation—Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi

[PMO India @PMOIndia]

एग्रीकल्चर सेक्टर में R&D को लेकर ज्यादातर योगदान पब्लिक सेक्टर का ही है।

अब समय आ गया है कि इसमें प्राइवेट सेक्टर की भागीदारी बढ़े: PM @narendramodi

More ambitious policy measures are needed to tackle Laos's underinvestment in agricultural R&D, to ensure that research stays adequately staffed into the future, and to ensure that research targets well-defined priority areas. https://t.co/o6ntq3kzVH

There is significant underinvestment in global agricultural research. According to @ASTINews, the gap between actual and a reasonable attainable investment was $24 billion in 2016.
