About Us
The Grower Group Alliance (GGA) is a not-for-profit organisation established in 2002 to build the capacity of grower groups and strengthen connections between Western Australian grower groups, researchers, funding bodies and industry.
Today, GGA is a thriving statewide Network comprising 95 member organisations, including 62 farmer-led local grower groups, with an aggregated producer membership base of more than 4,000 Western Australian farm enterprises.
GGA member groups operate at varying scales and for diverse purposes, reflecting the unique needs and priorities of their communities. Groups join the GGA Network to participate in collaborative research, development, extension and adoption (R,D,E & A) opportunities, gain priority access to the GGA Capacity Building Program, and strengthen their industry connections.
While initially founded by broadacre cropping groups, the GGA Network has evolved significantly over the past two decades. Today, member groups span grain, livestock and horticulture, with engagement from a range of niche agricultural sectors.
Interaction within the Network provides agricultural leaders and influencers with opportunities for cross-sector exchange, enriching divergent thinking and enabling collective innovation through inclusive approaches and impactful collaborative projects.
The continued growth and diversification of the GGA network delivers on Strategy Five of the GGA Strategic Plan, which aims to build a thriving and diverse network of grower groups in Western Australia to provide:
- A vital intersection between grower groups, industry and all levels of government
- Peer-to-peer exchange and collaborative opportunities
- Collaboration to accelerate innovation and adoption
