Abstract
Objective. Identify and analyze the science, technology and innovation projects of the agricultural and livestock sector, funded by Colciencias during 2010. Materials and methods. The registration database of Colciencias was used to identify eligible and funded project proposals by the National Program of Agricultural Science, Technology and Innovation among 2010 calls. The projects were classified based on the UNESCO International nomenclature for the fields of science and technology. The variables identified for each project were: number of the call, field, discipline, subdiscipline, productive chain, participating institutions and execution department. Results. In 2010 Colciencias received a total of 4,725 research proposals for funding, of these the National Program of Agricultural Science, Technology and Innovation received 790 projects. The disciplines of the projects financed were mostly from the agricultural subsector, followed by livestock and agribusiness. Public universities were the type of entity that received most of the funding for research projects. The departments that received most of the funding from Colciencias were Antioquia, Cundinamarca, Boyaca and Tolima. Conclusions. The National Program of Agricultural Science, Technology and Innovation received 16.7% of all projects received by Colciencias calls in 2010. Most of the projects submitted, eligible and funded were from the agricultural subsector. Most of these projects were presented and implemented by public universities. Total investment of Colciencias to fund the agricultural sector was $32,923,594 with a matching contribution of $33.225.740, 50.2% of total project value.
