The Agricultural History Society (AHS) was founded in 1919. Rodney H. True was chosen as chair and later elected as the society's first president. The founding members were from diverse professions--historians, sociologists, economists, and other scientists who believed they could better comprehend their individual fields through an understanding of the history of agriculture. The society maintained a close association with the USDA through the Bureau of Agricultural Economics and its successor organizations. Several USDA employees have served as officers.
