Notes

http://www.fao.org/agrovoc/news Since the early 1980's, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has coordinated AGROVOC, a multilingual and controlled vocabulary which is a valuable tool for data to be classified homogeneously, facilitating interoperability and reuse.
