                       AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH

MR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS  OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE:

     We are pleased  to be here today at your request to discuss

the results of some of our  major reviews related to the Depart-

ment of Agriculture's  research and development activities.  The

Federal/State research  and extension partnership has given our

Nation new and better ways  to improve food production, process-

ing, and marketing as well  as helping solve problems in environ-

mental quality and human nutrition.

     It is our understanding  that these hearings are the second

part of a comprehensive examination  of agricultural research and

extension which began with oversight  hearings on the Cooperative

Extension Service in the 97th Congress.  We  testified at those

oversight hearings in February  1982 on our report, Cooperative

Extension Service's Mission and Federal  Role Need Congressional

Clarification (CED-81-119, Aug.  21, 1981).
