Les systèmes nationaux de recherche agricole des pays en développement [...] sont, et continueront d’être, la pierre angulaire du système mondial de recherche agricole au fur et à mesure qu’ils s’efforcent d’accroître la productivité et la rentabilité dans leur propre pays. Les SNRA sont constitués par divers instituts nationaux de recherche agricole (INRA), des universités, des entreprises du secteur privé, des ONG [organisations non gouvernementales] et des organisations d’agriculteurs.
