SA Dairyfarmers' Association Representing and advancing the interests of SA dairy farmers
Advocacy
SADA represents dairy farmers on a range of issues to state and local government, the dairy industry and the wider community.
Policy
SADA has a proud record of working constructively with government and dairy industry organisations to achieve positive outcomes for all dairy farmers, including assisting farmers with seasonal variations, advocacy on animal welfare and a variety of farm business issues.
Industry Development
SA dairy is uniquely poised to carve out a niche in the global market place by placing itself at the front of the premium market. There is little doubt that South Australia will not be able to occupy a commanding space in the commodity supply chain, primarily because of its size.
Our Brands & Campaigns
SADA Fresh
The overarching purpose of the SA Dairy Industry Fund is to finance innovative projects that directly benefit the South Australian dairy industry and its communities.
Do Dairy, Support SA
Our goal is to educate consumers about the benefits of purchasing and consuming South Australian dairy products such as milk, cheese, yoghurt, butter and ice cream.
