Abstract
In December 1970, Dr. Nyle C. Brady, then Chairman of the Agricultural Board, Division of Biology and Agriculture, National Research Council, National Academy of Sciences, convened a meeting in Washington, D.C. of a Task Force on the Role of Agricultural Scientific Societies. Represented were: Agricultural Research Institute (ARI), American Society of Animal Science (ASAS), American Society of Agronomy (ASA), American Agricultural Economics Association (AAEA), Weed Science Society of America (WSSA), American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), Institute of Food Technologists (IFT), Poultry Science Association (PSA), American Society for Horticultural Science (ASHS), American Dairy Science Association (ADSA), American Society for Range Management (ASRM), and the Rural Sociological Society (RSS). The consensus was to pursue further “the idea of an independent association of the agricultural science societies,” thus a planning committee was appointed.
