The Agricultural Metadata Standards Initiative (AgMES) was established by FAO and is an initiative that aims to encompass issues of semantic standards in the domain of agriculture with respect to description, resource discovery, interoperability and data exchange for different types of information resources. AgMES acts as an umbrella under which namespaces from different disciplines in the domain of agriculture and related disciplines can be defined for newly declared elements. It is based on the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI).
