AgForce Queensland

AgForce Queensland is a peak organisation representing Queensland's rural producers, which strives to ensure the long term growth, viability, competitiveness and profitability of broadacre industries of cattle, grain, sheep and wool in Queensland.

n 1997, the Cattlemen's Union of Australia (CU), the Queensland Graingrowers Association (QGGA) and the United Graziers' Association (UGA) each represented their respective members on agripolitical issues.

Together, the three groups had a vision of bringing broadacre producers in a single, unified association. This organisation is now known as AgForce Queensland .

The merge proposal was put to a vote of the members of all three organisations in June, 1998, with phenomenal results. Around 94 percent of the UGA members, 92 percent of the QGGA members and 87 percent of the CU members who voted, voted in favour of the merger.
