Resumo: | Private R&amp;D is a major source of innovation and productivity growth in agriculture worldwide. This paper examines trends and determinants of agricultural R&amp;D in China. Results show that while the public sector monopolized agricultural research until recently, private agricultural R&amp;D has grown rapidly since 2000, driven largely by agribusiness privatization. Public-sector R&amp;D investments in basic research also encouraged private R&amp;D research, but public investments in technology development crowded out private R&amp;D investment. China’s private R&amp;D investment would grow more rapidly if the government shifted public resources from technology development to basic research.
