Equipment for the Laboratories Sample Clauses

Equipment for the Laboratories. Following discussions with the program partners, it became apparent that working on the soil and the phytopathology laboratories was not an initial priority goal for the PROPLANALTO program. However, IIA insisted, during the PROPLANALTO planning phase, that the laboratories be included in the program. The field trials program was focused on soil fertility and the evaluation of fertilizer needs. An operational soil laboratory would have been very beneficial. Everybody agrees that an operational soil laboratory is an essential tool for the development of Angolan agriculture. Neither the work of a number of experienced external consultants, nor the provision of equipment and reagents supplied by PROPLANALTO, were sufficient for the soil laboratory to be in working order. Soil samples were sent to the USA for analysis. The phytopathology laboratory is also not working as it should. It appears, first of all, that the planned budget for both laboratories was inadequate. But, above all, the staff provided by IIA to run the laboratory are not adequately qualified. In his report, the external consultant, Dr Xxx Xxxxxxxx, stated his strong doubts on the management capacities of those responsible for the soil laboratory. However, the IIA Director did not accept these conclusions and maintained the soil laboratory staff as they were. More surprising was the inability of the IIA deputy director and laboratory director to explain what still needs to be done for the laboratories to be in working order. There seems to be nobody with overall responsibility for it. The consultants observed that no research program was conducted in the two laboratories. No senior researcher is forecasting any research or soil analysis. It seems clear that the utility of the soil and phytopathology laboratories are not a priority for the national research institutions. IIA has not given any commitment to run the laboratories in the short term. Lastly, the laboratories have no budget provided for by IIA. The soil laboratory manager has no means to purchase any required basic tools. For example, Dr Xxx Xxxxxxxx was surprised that there were no scissors in March 2005 and no budget to buy them. This is still the case now.
