+## iNatAg and iNatAg-mini
+
+
+AgML provides an API with direct access to iNatAg (and iNatAg-mini), one of the world's largest collections of agricultural images dedicated for the task of image classification. Collectively, this dataset contains over 4 million images along with detailed species classificaations and enables access to a variety of large-scale agricultural machine learning tasks. You can instantiate the iNatAg (or iNatAg-mini, a smaller variant of iNatAg for smaller-scale applications) dataset as follows:
+
+```python
+# To select a collection of scientific family names.
+loader = agml.data.AgMLDataLoader.from_parent("iNatAg", filters={"family_name": ["...", "..."]})
+
+# To select common names.
+loader = agml.data.AgMLDataLoader.from_parent("iNatAg", filters={"common_name": "..."})
+```
