State Dairy Farmer Organisations

In an exciting development for dairy farmer representation, Australian Dairy Farmers Limited (ADF) voted on 15 August to change the constitution to allow ADF to deliver improved value to farmers.

The change gives us a five member board to focus on national strategy and oversight of operations with a National Council to focus on policy and advocacy issues so all dairy farmers have the support they need and are represented in national debate. Most importantly, grass-roots farmers have a direct voice in how you are supported and represented by ADF when you become a member.

We encourage farmers with expertise and interest in policy areas such as Farms & Farming Systems & Herd Improvement, Natural Resource Management, Animal Health & Welfare, Markets, Trade & Value Chain and People & Human Capacity to consider applying to join one of our Policy Advisory Groups (PAGs) to help shape national policy.
