This dimension sorts agricultural institutions by their basic kind, a research body, a cooperative or a government agency. Wikipedia notes that organizations and institutions "can be synonymous," though some scholars treat an organization as "a narrow version of institutions or represent a cluster of institutions." Browsing by kind keeps institutions of the same basic type grouped together.
