Summary
ARIMNet is based on a four-step process, each one corresponds to a work package, aiming the
implementation and funding of joint activities.
ARIMNet first requirement is to provide a precise description of the “state of the art” of
agricultural research in the Mediterranean, concerning research, research capacities and
training.
In order to accomplish the mapping of agricultural research in the Mediterranean Area, a
methodological approach was taken. This approach consisted of a national questionnaire, which
was distributed and answered by the Portuguese public institutions playing agricultural
research.
The information collected through the questionnaire was analysed and produced a more
integrated overview of agricultural research in the Mediterranenan Area, as well as, a broader
description of the research context.
The survey also provided information on the research activities procedures, which helped to
identify the best practices in R&D.

GENERAL ACTOR PRESENTATION
A systematic knowledge of Portuguese public institutions playing in agricultural research in the
Mediterranean does not exist. Due to this fact, the first ARIMNet objective was to develop an
inventory of research organisations acting in this area, at national level.
In Portugal there are two main database sources of agricultural research organisations
available, from the Ministry of Science, Technology and Higher Education that have been used
for this purpose:
•
The database from the Planning, Strategy, Evaluation and International Relations
Office (GPEARI), resulting from the 2007 survey on the National Scientific and
Technological Potential, containing in excess of 1300 research units identified;
•
The database from Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) resulting from the
2007 process of international evaluation of research units, containing in excess of
300 centres identified. From those 300 centres identified, 65 were identified on
Agriculture S&T domain, which includes, forestry, livestock, game, fisheries and
agriculture.
The selection of the Portuguese research units to enquire regarding the ARIMNet questionnaire
was made on the basis of the thematic research lines carried out by each of them. A list of the
contacted research units is shown in Table 1.
The selected research units were contacted and asked to express their interest in the ARIMNet
initiative. A brief description of ARIMNet, its rational, purpose and benefits were provided
(Annex 1) and reinforced with a presentation (Annex 2) attached to the email body.
From the 65 research units contacted by FCT, 38 responses to the questionnaire were
obtained, which corresponds to a response rate of 58.5%. This means that significant interest
was raised by the Portuguese scientific community by this thematic transnational cooperation
network.

2. INFORMATION ON FUNDING SCHEMES
2.1 Management by the national funding body: FCT
The funding of the Portuguese agricultural research system is mainly conducted by FCT, which
acts as a Research Council under the authority of the Ministry of Science, Technology and
Higher Education.
FCT supports four main funding actions (Figure 1):
-
Research projects;
-
Fellowships and grants;
-
Institutional funding, and;
-
Scientific Community Support Program (FACC), as described in figure 1.

___________________________________________________________________
Research projects
FCT supports an important research program which funds projects in all domains of science.
This major program selects and funds research projects on the basis of scientific excellence.
Since this program is directed to all scientific domains, it encompasses Mediterranean
agricultural research, however, it does not focus on any priority theme. FCT has lunched calls
for proposals in all scientific domains every 2 years since 2000, and every year since 2008.
In 2009, FCT launched a thematic program on cork oak (described on 3.1), which funded 12
projects.
The Portuguese Government's Commitment to Science for the future of Portugal points to the
rapid scientific and technological development of the country as a national priority, defining
targets and outcome criteria for this development. Towards the fulfillment of this objective,
several measures are considered among which the enhancement of the R&D projects program,
evaluation and selection in public calls, by international expert’s panels.
Fellowships and grants
Advanced training and qualification of human resources is a key priority in Portugal’s Science
and Technology policy, as reiterated in the government’s Commitment to Science. One aims at
speeding up the convergence of scientific qualification of human resources in Portugal to the
level generally seen in other European Union countries, particularly with respect to postgraduate education.
The Commitement to Science aims to clarify the terms under which different types of grants are
awarded, in the context of bolstering public investment in qualification and post-graduate
education and, to simplify the administrative procedures associated with the application and
registration process.
FCT supports a great variety of fellowships and grants for graduate students (e.g. MsC, PhD,
post-doc) through annual public calls, according to the applicable regulations.
Recently, post-doctoral research positions designed to complement actions already underway
to promote jobs in scientific fields were launched in 2007 and 2008, through program Ciência
2007 and Ciência 2008 initiatives to provide support for hiring individuals who hold doctoral
degrees, under the individual employment contract regime.

Coordination of the Agricultural Research in the Mediterranean Area
D1.3 Country report: Portugal
___________________________________________________________________
Another recent FCT initiative is the funding for initiation in scientific research. These grants were
offered for the first time in 2008 and are designed for undergraduate students in the early years
of their training (including 1st year students), with good scholastic performance. These grants
aim to foster scientific activity and develop critical reasoning skills, creativity and autonomy in
undergraduate students through the practice of research, and participation in the research
institution activities.
Institutional funding
The majority of Portuguese scientific research takes place in research and development (R&D)
Units evaluated and funded by FCT. There are three types of R&D Units (Figure 1):
a. State Laboratories (in agriculture domain, Instituto Nacional de Recursos Biológicos);
b. Other public research institutions;
c. Private research institutions such as Associate Laboratories, associations, NGO´s,
foundations, research societies, etc.
Since 1994, a legal framework for institutional funding of units was established by FCT.
FCT puts in place a periodic evaluation process for research units, which will determine access
to multi-year funding. The evaluation is done by several panels of international experts and
includes the analysis of research activity plans with direct contact with the researchers through
visits to all units. This evaluation process culminates with the panel attributing a qualitative
grade, which determines the amount of funding to be received. This procedure was regulated in
1996.
A total of 23 Research Units under the agriculture domain were funded between 2003-2009,
which became 13 Research Units, for the period 2009-2012, reflecting a merging process of the
units to achieve larger competitiveness.
R&D units in Portugal on Agriculture domain, its type and affiliation, are listed in Annex 3.

___________________________________________________________________
Scientific Community Support Program
The Scientific Community Support Program (FACC) provides selective funding to Portuguese
scientific community initiatives that foster R&D activities or dissemination of information, in any
scientific area, which is not supported by a specific programs. FACC is used to complement and
articulate with the regular programs, namely:
•
Organisation of scientific meetings in Portugal;
•
Publication of scientific periodicals;
•
Operation of scientific societies or scientific institutions of a similar nature;
•
Publication of non-periodical scientific literature;
•
Participation of researchers holding a PhD or post-doctoral students in scientific
meetings abroad;
•
Short term stays in Portugal for scientists who reside abroad.
2.2 Management by Ministry of Agricultural and Rural Development and Fisheries
(MADRP)
The MADRP is the governmental department responsible for the definition of agricultural, rural
development and fisheries policies, in order to achieve a sustainable development, quality
safety of the food production chain. For example, a specific program for Rural Development
(2007-2013) – ProDer, which although it excludes funding for research, it recognises the crucial
rule of "knowledge dissemination", as a factor of rural development1. Currently, MADRP does
not manage any agricultural research programmes at national level. Despite this, the MADRP
has under its responsibility an important research institution, the “Instituto Nacional dos
Recursos Biológicos” (INRB), which develops research in agricultural fields, such as veterinary,
animal growth, marine biology and fishing.

3. MAPPING OF RESEARCH PROGRAMS IN AGRICULTURE IN PORTUGAL
3.1 Research programs in Agriculture in Portugal
FCT is the main source of funding in agriculture in Portugal holding two research programs:
a) Program in all scientific domains;
b) Thematic Program on Cork Oak: funds projects to obtain and characterize cork oak
Express Sequence Tags – ESTs, therefore, being included in the general Mediterranean
agriculture research field.
This thematic program aims at building a chip, which will be an essential tool in the
understanding of phenomena, such as the response of the cork oak to environmental
factors, its sensitivity to plagues and diseases, and the cork growth mechanisms. This chip
will also be useful for similar species, such as the holm and oaks, equally significant in
Europe at the environmental and economical levels.
3.2 Funding management
The funding mechanism used by FCT, to put the above mentioned programs into practice, is the
competitive call for proposals. FCT disseminates programs and calls information throughout its
website (http://alfa.fct.mctes.pt/apoios/projectos/index.phtml.en).
Projects´ duration funded by the program on all scientific domains, ranges between 6 and 42
months (Table 2), with an average annual budget of 50.000€/project/year. Under the same
program, during 2008, FCT funded 4M€ on R&D projects on Agriculture corresponding to 33%
of the total budget for the Agriculture domain (Figure 2). The remaining budget was used on
other funding actions: fellowships and grants (43%); institutional funding (23%) and FACC (1%)
(see page 7).
Started in 2009, the thematic program on cork oak, public funding awarded by FCT totals to
600.000€, an amount that supports 12 research projects (50 000€/project). In order to optimize
the research results, their principal investigators cooperate in a consortium.
Successful proposals are funded and executed through a contract. Its project funding depends
upon organisation type: for example a State Laboratory, or other public research institutions are
100% funded and SMEs, are partially financed (up to 50%).

___________________________________________________________________
3.3 Implementation procedures
The guidelines for applicants, concerning the calls for research proposals, are provided by FCT,
and are based in full proposal application procedures. Each proposal is evaluated by 2 to 4
international evaluators, selected by their scientific expertise on the topic. The final ranking is
consolidated in a scientific evaluation panel meeting, based on the following:
•
Scientific quality;
•
Innovation;
•
Expected benefit;
•
Use of results;
•
Expertise of applicant, and;
•
Adequacy of management and resources utilization.
Written comments from the evaluators are available to applicants, after decision for funding.
Nevertheless, there is a legal time for complains. The evaluators are anonymous to the
applicants.
The program timeframe is 5-10 months from the application closing date to the end of
evaluation process, and less than five months from the end of evaluation process to the final
decision making.
3.4 Projects monitoring
All projects funded by FCT within the above mentioned programs are monitored financially by
FCT and scientifically by an expert panel (and report), through an annual report.
There is the possibility to extend somehow the deadline of the final report or output.
3.5 Evaluation of programs
Evaluation of programs is based upon relevance to the strategic agenda, scientific quality of the
results, innovation, benefits and use of results, adequacy of management and resources
utilization.

•
Participation in a voluntary submission to funding bodies (n=21);
•
Direct assignment from funding bodies (n=14).
4.2 Type of research activity
The results of ARIMNet survey show that the type of research activity mostly developed, using

4.3 Users/beneficiaries of research results
In Portugal there is a large scope of users/beneficiaries of research results (Figure 6). The
applied research is driven by the user’s needs at regional level. Local communities, public
bodies and production chain holders/districts are the main target of research results (Annex 4,
4.3).

4.5 Intellectual property rights
Questionaire results shows that intelectual property (IPR) rights are mostly property of the
research organisation (n=30) or from researchers (n=16). Some research organisations have
mentioned IPR belonging to the funding agency (n=13). However, FCT never claims for IPR.
Thus, the results of the questionaire do not reflect the right position from research organisation,
regarding IPR rights (Annex 4, 4.5).
4.6 Project management/research activities facilities
The questionnaire shows that most of research organisations enquired have facilities available

ANNEX 1. DESCRIPTION OF ARIMNET
Exmo(a) Senhor(a) Director(a) do Centro ......,
Prof.(a) Doutor(a) .........,
Gostaria de solicitar a colaboração de V. Exª. no âmbito da iniciativa ARIM-Net, englobada no
esquema de cooperação trans-nacional ERA-NET.
ARIMNet é uma iniciativa que visa a coordenação de programas de investigação científica e a
promoção da cooperação internacional no campo da Agricultura Mediterrânica e questões
relacionados (como sejam, a título de exemplo, o impacto ambiental e tópicos socioeconómicos).
A rede ARIMNet envolverá um conjunto de onze países da União Europeia e da zona
Mediterrânica. Esta acção de coordenação visa combater a fragmentação do esforço científico
nesta área, promovendo a convergência de programas de investigação nacionais dos paísesmembros da rede.
Tem entre os seus objectivos fomentar a excelência científica, bem como, promover o seu
impacto na abordagem de problemas chave. Entre estes, encontram-se, por exemplo, a
crescente procura por alimentação mais saudável, segura e de mais qualidade; a utilização
sustentável de recursos biológicos; a biodiversidade; a ameaça à sustentabilidade da produção
agrícola devida a alterações climáticas e a pressões urbanas.
Em ficheiro anexo (ARIMNET Intro.ppt) poderá encontrar uma descrição sumária sobre a rede
ARIMNET, seu âmbito, propósito e implementação. Para informação adicional por favor visite o
site www.arimnet.net (ou no site da FCT, consultar PF
http://alfa.fct.mctes.pt/apoios/cooptrans/eranets/arimnet/index.phtml.en).
A rede ARIMNet encontra-se presentemente na fase de recolha de informação (consultar o
ficheiro anexo questionnaire en.docs) e mapeamento dos programas de financiamento de
investigação agrícola Mediterrânica, das Unidades de I&D com actividade de investigação
científica nesta área e áreas conexas, sua capacidade e infra-estrutura. Esta fase é essencial
para subsequentemente identificar oportunidades de cooperação e de integração em
actividades conjuntas e de financiamento.
A resposta ao questionário poderá ser em papel através do preenchimento do documento em
anexo (questionnaire en.docx) que poderá ser delegada em terceira pessoa e enviado para a
morada abaixo. Compreende cerca de 20 questões, podendo algumas das quais não ser de
resposta imediata, ou carecer de prévia clarificação.
O prazo para resposta ao questionário decorre até dia 31 de Dezembro 2009.
Agradeço desde já o tempo dispensado a este assunto, mantendo a expectativa de que a
integração na rede ARIMNET se revelará uma mais-valia para a comunidade científica
envolvida nesta área de trabalho. Manifesto ainda a minha inteira disponibilidade para qualquer
esclarecimento no preenchimento do questionário.
Com os melhores cumprimentos,
Paulo Couto Ferreira
