Organisations/Victorian Farmer's Federation
From Poultry Hub
The VFF is a federation made up of eight commodity groups representing farmers in the chicken meat, dairy, eggs, flowers, grains, livestock, pigs and horticulture industries.
The Victorian Farmers Federation Chicken Meat Group represents the interests of Victoria's 190 contracted Broiler Farmers. The Group is structured into five Branches reflecting the processor to which a grower is contracted. A major role of the Chicken Meat Group is to assist members in negotiations of the growing fee and contract conditions with the processors to ensure a fair deal to all parties.
The Victorian Farmers Federation Egg Group represents more than 60 egg producers across Victoria. It has an elected executive board of eight producers, elected annually, and an Executive Officer. There are three egg production systems - cage, free range and barn-laid. Producers of all systems have a united voice through the VFF Egg Group on industry issues such as: drought, codes of practice, animal welfare, animal health, food safety, the environment, research and development, education, training, feed grains, imports and industry relations.
