This paper discusses the usefulness of Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) in weighting agricultural research results in ex-post research evaluation.
It provides the basis for theoretical discussion, reviews different methods and gives an in depth practical example of its application. It also discusses the strengths and weaknesses of the method and its application to agricultural research.
