AGRIS : the International System for Agricultural Science and Technology
AGRIS at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), is the service that connects you directly to a wealth of research and technical information on agriculture worldwide. AGRIS is unique for its collection of rich bibliographic records, indexed by AGROVOC, the FAO multilingual agricultural thesaurus.
Content in AGRIS includes agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, aquatic sciences, fisheries, human nutrition and extension. AGRIS offers currently almost 9,000,000 records, from which almost 2,000,000 are full text accessed through Google.
Information resources presented in AGRIS are produced by research centers, development programs, international and national organizations.
Some 400,000 agricultural and research professionals worldwide access AGRIS resources each month, and through AGRIS references on search engines and Google Scholar.
