  Typically includes a brief overview of previous research and a
statement of the research problem or research question.
o Objectives
 This section outlines the goals or objectives of the research and may
include a hypothesis or research question.
o Scope:
 This section defines the scope of the research, including the
population or sample being studied, the geographic or time frame,
and any limitations or exclusions.
o Significance:
 This section explains the significance or importance of the research
and its potential contribution to the field or to society as a whole.

 Importance of a Well-written Introduction

A recent study (RIVM, 2019) shows that cattle farmers account for two thirds of agricultural
 nitrogen emissions in the Netherlands. These emissions result from nitrogen in manure, which
can degrade into ammonia and enter the atmosphere. The study’s calculations show that
agriculture is the main source of nitrogen pollution, accounting for 46% of the country’s total
emissions. By comparison, road traffic and households are responsible for 6.1% each, the
industrial sector for 1%.
