Our Purpose
The Western Australian Farmers Federation (Inc) (WAFarmers) is the largest and most influential agricultural advocacy group in Western Australia.
WAFarmers represents the voice of farmers throughout Western Australia and is continually working towards a more viable, profitable and sustainable future for the agricultural industry.
As part of this pursuit, WAFarmers develops corporate partnerships with companies who provide a service to WAFarmers Members, which place money directly back into farmers’ pockets.
In order to best represent the interests of our members, WAFarmers has 17 zones across Western Australia which are championed by zone presidents and co-ordinators.
These individuals work hard to provide grassroots representation relevant to polices that effect on farm sustainability and profitability and provides WAFarmers with information that comes direct from the farm.
This enables our members to express their views at a local level without having to head to the city.
