Working Groups
Eighteen Working Groups (WGs) ranging from Air Quality in Animal Houses to Soil & Water provide the technical nucleus of the Society. The WGs are grouped into nine Fields of Interest and members are encouraged to register their interest in up to three such fields and participate in the discussion and dissemination of scientific knowledge.
