THE CHARITY’S OBJECT IS FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PUBLIC TO ADVANCE THE SCIENCE OF AGRICULTURE BY THE INITIATION, PROSECUTION, DEVELOPMENT AND CONTINUANCE OF INVESTIGATIONS AND EXPERIMENTS RELATED THERETO AND INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE FOLLOWING:
1. THE CHEMISTRY PHYSICS AND BIOLOGY OF SOILS ESPECIALLY IN RELATION TO THE RESPONSES OF CROPS TO MINERAL NUTRIENTS WATER SOIL COMPACTION DRAINAGE TILLAGE PRACTICES AND MICROBIAL PROCESSES.
2. THE BIOCHEMISTRY AND MOLECULAR AND CELL BIOLOGY OF PLANTS AND ARABLE CROPS.
3. THE PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES OF PLANTS AND ARABLE CROPS TO ENVIRONMENTAL AND AGRONOMIC FACTORS AND THE PHYSICS OF CROP MICROCLIMATE.
4. THE BIOLOGY, ECOLOGY, BEHAVIOUR AND DISPERSAL OF PLANTS, ANIMALS, FUNGI, BACTERIA AND VIRUSES.
5. PROCESSES COMPOUNDS AND ORGANISMS CAPABLE OF MONITORING PREDICTING AND CONTROLLING PESTS AND DISEASES OF CROPS.
6. BIOMATHEMATICS INCLUDING STATISTICAL AND COMPUTING SERVICES.
7. THE IMPACT OF AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES AND OPERATIONS ON THE NATURAL AND SEMI-NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND MEANS OF MINIMISING OR ELIMINATING DAMAGING OR UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS PRODUCED BY SUCH PRACTICES AND OPERATIONS.
8 THE INTERACTIONS BETWEEN SOIL, MICROBES, PLANTS, ANIMALS, WATER AND THE ATMOSPHERE WITHIN GRASSLAND-DOMINATED AGRICULTURAL LANDSCAPES IN ORDER TO SUPPORT SUSTAINABLE, MULTIFUNCTIONAL LAND MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS THAT ARE ADAPTABLE TO DIFFERENT PRODUCTION AND/OR ENVIRONMENTAL GOALS; THAT HELP PROTECT OUR NATURAL RESOURCES; THAT HELP MITIGATE AGAINST, AND ADAPT TO, CLIMATE CHANGE AND THAT TAKE ACCOUNT OF CHANGING SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, POLICY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
