The Irish Farmers Association (IFA) is a national organization representing farmers in Ireland. Founded in 1955, it advocates for the interests of farmers across various sectors, including dairy, beef, and tillage. The IFA works to influence agricultural policy, promote sustainable farming practices, and ensure fair prices for farmers' products. The IFA also provides support and resources to its members, including training, advice, and market information. By engaging with government bodies and other stakeholders, the association aims to enhance the agricultural sector's viability and sustainability, ultimately benefiting farmers and rural communities throughout Ireland.
