  • academic engagement commercialization and scholarship empirical evidence from agricultural and life scientists at u s Land Grant Universities
    National Bureau of Economic Research, 2020
    Co-Authors: Bradford L Barham, Jeremy D Foltz, Ana Paula Melo
    Abstract:

    This article examines the involvement of agricultural and life science faculty at U.S. Land Grant Universities in two types of university-industry relations: academic engagement (sponsored research, industry collaborations, and presentations), academic commercialization (patenting, licensing, and start-ups) and traditional academic scholarship. It exploits large-scale, random sample cross-section surveys of nearly 1,500 scientists at the original 52 Land Grant Universities in 2005 and 2015. We fill a knowledge gap regarding the prevalence, coincidence, intensity, importance and factors shaping faculty involvement in university-industry relations (UIR). After several decades of promotion and emphasis on UIR activities participation in them has plateaued and is stable at a fairly high level. Academic engagement is far more prevalent (at 76% of faculty) and important than is academic commercialization (at 19% of faculty). Academic engagement generates 15-20 times the research funds than academic commercialization does, but both continue to be dwarfed by public funding. We find evidence of synergies between UIR activities and academic scholarship. We also explore how individual, institutional, and university-level factors help explain faculty UIR participation. We find differences across academic disciplines and highlight the role that faculty attitudes toward science and commercial activity shape involvement in UIR. Significant differences also stem from university level effects and may be contingent on culture, history, location, and quality of science.

  • Response of Cucumber, Yellow Squash, and Zucchini to Six Nitrogen Rates
    'Purdue University (bepress)', 2020
    Co-Authors: Goldy, Ron G, Ferrantella Kyle
    Abstract:

    This is a compilation of 12 research trial reports from four Land-Grant Universities in the Midwestern United States. Crops include cantaloupe, pickling cucumber, pepper, potato, pumpkin, summer squash and zucchini, sweet corn, tomato, and watermelon. Somecrops were evaluated in high tunnels or hoophouses. Most trials evaluated different cultivars or varieties. One report addressed plant spacing for sweet corn and one addressed soil block for production of tomato seedlings. A list of vegetable seed sources and a list of other online sources of vegetable trial reports are also included

  • technical change and efficiency at us Land Grant Universities is there any fat left to cut
    Research Papers in Economics, 2004
    Co-Authors: Jeremy D Foltz, Bradford L Barham, Jeanpaul Chavas, Kwansoo Kim
    Abstract:

    This work uses non-parametric efficiency analysis and a unique panel data set to analyze efficiency and technical change at US Universities from 1981-1998 with a special emphasis on Land Grant institutions. The analysis demonstrates that Land Grants are on average more efficient than their counterparts. While in the 1980s they had higher levels of technological change, in the 1990s that declined to levels similar to other types of Universities. Identifying factors influencing efficiency and technological progress in university production provides key insights into the future of the Land Grant system.
