Introduction

Aim

Workshops with New Zealand experts were held to identify emerging issues that will drive change in pasture weed science and management.
Responders to rank themes based on three criteria:
“Is it likely to become more important in 10 to 20 years”,
“Work in this area will stretch knowledge boundaries”,
“Successful research on this could result in significant changes to weed management”.
Six major themes.
3 to 5 subordinate themes for each major theme.
Ranking all subordinate themes too time consuming, each responder would only be shown the subordinate themes for their three highest ranked major themes.
Survey questionnaire was reactive to their responses.

To create a survey to help identify potentially stretchy impactful science in the field of pasture and weed science and management.

The Survey

Welcome Page

Discussion

Introduction page used to collect demographic questions and gain consent from responders.
The rank order of the main themes (averaged over three criteria) were used to decide the subset of themes to be presented.
Final page allows further text responses and a summary report download.
All responses stored on “Dropbox”.

Conclusion

Shiny is a useful tool for setting up ranked order reactive surveys
