This report outlines the proposal for restructuring Scientific Names and Common Names of Organisms in AGROVOC. The main reason for this is that during indexing somebody may decide to tag a document with the scientific name while somebody else may decide to tag it with the common name.The right approach would be to have an indexing system which does not use terms for indexing but rather a unique reference to a concept.
