IGFA’s mission is to support our members by creating a political and economic environment that enables them to produce safe and nutritious feed profitably and sustainably.  We do this through

1. Political representation –  we represent, defend and promote the interests of the Irish compound feed and premix industry with government, the European Institutions, international bodies and other stakeholders. Our lobbying aims to inform and direct policy decisions that will impact on our industry and secure the best deal for our members. We regularly meet with government officials, politicians and work closely with others in the food chain on issues ranging from climate change to mycotoxins. We also represent the industry on various government committees and forums.
2. Information– we ensure that members are kept up to date on adjustments to the rules and regulations that might affect their businesses, political developments that will impact on the agri food sector and potential market changes on the horizon. This allows members to prepare and adapt.
3. Technical support – as part of a monthly newsletter we provide our members with relevant technical updates and food and feed safety alerts.
4. Personal development – we facilitate training and continued learning for members through workshops, conferences and certified training courses and by providing a platform where members can share best practice.
