Research by Topic

Welcome to the National Agricultural Law Center’s library of subject-based “Reading Rooms.”    Each reading room contains a comprehensive list of current electronic resources for an agricultural or food law topic.  Links are provided to major statutes, regulations, case law, Center-published research articles, government publications, Congressional publications, and numerous other research resources.  Also contained in each room is an overview article that provides  a thumbnail sketch of the history and development of that subject.  Links to the other rooms are provided on the left side of each reading room.  Recently added resources are posted at the top of the applicable sections.  Periodic browsing of our Reading Rooms is suggested, as resources are frequently added and/or updated, and work on the construction of new rooms is ongoing.
