The alliance of these organizations has brought about very
good results. Joint efforts in research and development are
achieving progress much faster and far beyond what individual
efforts and capacities would bring. Likewise, the joint mobilization
of funds has proved advantageous for all.
In this way,
Agronatura facilitates the formation of a basic core of scientists,
who have the opportunity to exchange ideas, form strategic
alliances, and share state-of-the-art technology, thus inducing
globalization of research. From the administrative viewpoint,
the Park represents an advantage in that members can share
costs and funds can be mobilized collaboratively.
