Formed in 1995, the Agriculture Network Information Collaborative (AgNIC) is a partnership of institutions who voluntarily collaborate in the area of agricultural information and data management.

Mission Statement

Facilitate cooperation among institutions and organizations world-wide that are involved in and committed to the identification, discovery, management, delivery and preservation of information and data related to agriculture, food, and natural resources.

Governance

AgNIC Partners participate in a voluntary governance structure led by an Executive Board; board members are elected annually by partner representatives who serve on the Coordinating Committee.
