8 Evaluation of JTI’s R&D Activities 2005–2008
Summary The aim of the evaluation of the research and development activities of the Swedish Institute of Agricultural and Environmental Engineering was to assess their scientific quality and relevance. The evaluation committee has reviewed the scientific quality on the basis of the following indicators: the scientific competence of the research staff, participation in international networks and projects and the number and quality of international publications and reports. The presentations of the director, development manager and research managers and the discussions complemented with the written documents have given a good and broad picture of JTI. The relevance of the R&D carried out was judged on the basis of the presentations and discussions with the director and research staff and interviews with the chairman and stakeholders of SJMF and the Swedish Board for Agriculture. In the evaluation by the committee the conditions for the research activities of JTI (e.g. financing and funding of projects, scale of the JTI, measures taken by the management) in the period 2004 – 2007 have played a role. The strengths of JTI are the continuing building on the scientific competence of the research staff, participation in international networks and projects, implementation of modern technology in the research, building up new expertise (Bioenergy), flexibility in the period with less available project funding and the recognized relevance of the research and competences of JTI by the stakeholders. Dissemination of the knowledge achieved from the framework programme 2005 – 2008 via reports, website, newsletters and the frequency of articles in the daily press work out positively for stakeholders, authorities, farmers' associations and the public debate in society.
