EFA

European Forage Association (EFA) acts as a platform to bring members from hay and straw associations from across Europe, together, for the mutual benefit of all.

Objectives

  • To facilitate the international exchange of straw, fodder, and derivatives.
  • To defend, on an international level, the common interests of member organisations regarding the “product”,
    the “professions” of dealers in straw, fodder, and derivatives, and the “commercial function” in general.
  • To represent the profession within and around official international organisations.

Through these objectives, the association seeks to attain:

  • The study of all commercial questions relating to straw, fodder and derivatives.
  • The permanent improvement in contact between member organisations.
  • The establishment of international trading conditions, arbitration rules and practices.
  • In general terms, all other appropriate measures.
