About the Saeima
The Farmers' Council (ZSA) is the most influential and constructive non-governmental organization of Latvian agricultural and horticultural growers and producers. Our goal is to support Latvian agriculture and horticulture by advocating for stable and sustainable growth for Latvian farmers!
The main work of the association is a representation of the interests of Latvian farmers, involvement in legislative processes at the national and European Union (EU) levels. We explain and help implement the latest laws, regulations and EU regulations in farms. The association regularly organizes seminars and conferences, which contain the latest and most current information on various agricultural sectors. Our board and members regularly participate in interviews, TV and radio broadcasts, expressing their opinions on current topics in the agricultural sector.
We work to give you a voice, to protect your way of life in rural Latvia now and in the future.
History
The Farmers' Assembly is founded in 1999, merging 134 strong and forward-looking farms with a common goal – to fight for the interests of Latvian farmers.
Currently, the organization unites more than 900 strong and purposeful members, representing all spheres of agriculture. The organization's main function is to work for farmers and fight for their interests, as well as to explain and help implement the latest laws, regulations and other regulations introduced by the European Union on farms - to organize seminars and conferences on them.
Our work has paid off – our members together manages more than 500 thousand hectares of available agricultural land in Latvia, and it only continues to grow. Behind our member farms are more than 4,000 jobs for local residents. So, by fighting for the interests of our farmers, we also defend these jobs and the families that depend on them. Agriculture is the strongest sector in Latvia, and we can be proud of being the leading NGO in this sector!
