PURPOSE OF THE ASSOCIATION
The Association pursues the object of winning every institution, association, society or individual person being engaged in commodity science and technology on the international scene to collaborate in the Association's aims, and of serving, by way of an extensive exchange of knowledge and experience on an international level, the progress of modern commodity science.
Setting out from the realisation that modern commodity science must be based on
considering the commodity in its entirety, taking all its aspects into account, the Association advocates the establishment and promotion of scientific institutions capable of meeting such requirements.
