Methods of Instigating Research in Dairy Waste Under the Research and Marketing Act E. W. Gaumnitz, Executive Secretary National Cheese Institute, Inc. Chicago, Illinois In presenting views on methods of instigating research in dairy waste under the Research and Marketing Act of 1946 it may be advan¬ tageous to review briefly the general scope of the Act," the powers contained therein, and the authorizations provided and appropriations made pursuant to those authorizations. Broadly speaking, the Research and Marketing Act of 1946 author¬ izes research on all types of agricultural problems, with particular emphasis on marketing research and services. Perhaps it can be stated that the Act represents an attempt to bring to bear upon marketing questions the scientific methods which have enabled the development of abundant production of agricultural products. The Act is divided into three parts referred to as Titles I, II, and III. Title I represents an expansion of the Bankhead Jones Act of 1935, wherein it is declared to be the policy of Congress to promote the effi¬ cient production and utilization of farm products. Research under Title I is specifically authorized in many fields including production, distribution, utilization, nutrition, conservation, farm management, and the like. Funds under Title I are authorized for three distinct sections. Under Section 9, there is authorization for additional funds for use by the state agricultural experiment stations. Under this title the amounts authorized over a five-year period range from 2)4 million to 20 million dollars. Section 10(a) of Title I provides for further research to develop new and expanded uses for agricultural products. For the most part the Act seems to contemplate that this research shall be conducted largely by the United States Department of Agriculture, but author¬ ization is included for contracting with public or private organiza¬ tions or individuals to do specific research whenever the work can be done more effectively. Contracts may run for as long as four years. 421
