Abstract
The paper discusses research out-put as a live-wire to scientific
and research institutions. It measures and correlates research
contributions of scientists in Institute for Agricultural Research,
Samaru, (I.A.R) and National Animal Production Research Institute,
Shika, (N.A.P.R.I), Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.
Fisher's T-test statistical techniques was employed to test the
null hypothesis that there is no significant difference between the
frequency of publication of scientists in I.A.R. and N.A.P.R.I.
The paper concludes that I.A.R. and N.A.P.R.I. have made
remarkable impact not only in the agricultural sector but also in the
economy in general. Also, despite the fact that N.A.P.R.I. was
carved out of I.A.R., there is no significant difference between the
productivity of researchers in the two institutes.
