The American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASBAE) has been providing the world with education and scientific information since 1907. The mission of ASABE is to facilitate the exchange of technical information and promote the science and art of engineering in agricultural, food, and biological systems. As part of fulfilling this mission ASABE provides an international center for standards and agricultural engineering practices.

General topic areas covered by ASABE standards include

• biological engineering
• food and process engineering
• information and electrical technologies
• power and machinery
• soil and water
• structures and environment
• ergonomics safety and health

As world population swells more food, energy, and goods are required. But limited natural resources demand that more be produced with less. Biological and agricultural engineers are responding with viable, environmentally sustainable solutions. The success of these efforts is expanding in such related biological fields as medicine, pharmacy, and bioinstrumentation. ASABE standards help to ensure that higher productivity does not degrade the environment and document new ways to use agricultural products, byproducts, and wastes.
