The Irish Farmers' Association (IFA) (Irish: Feirmeoirí Aontaithe na hÉireann) is a national organisation to represent the interests of all sectors of farming in the Republic of Ireland. The IFA is Ireland's largest farming representative organisation and has operated more than 60 years.[citation needed]
The IFA represents Irish farmers at home and in Europe, lobbying and campaigning for improved conditions and incomes for farm families.[citation needed] It also provides representation, support and advice to members on an individual basis.[citation needed]
IFA is a democratic association, organised in branches, county executive and national committees.[1]
The IFA's head office is at the Irish Farm Centre, in Bluebell, Dublin. It also maintains 12 regional offices and an office in Brussels.
