Australian Dairy Farmers (ADF) and the Australian Dairy Products Federation (ADPF) are Group B members of Dairy Australia.

  • Tasmanian Farmers & Graziers Association Dairy Council
  • Victorian Farmers Federation United Dairyfarmers of Victoria
  • Western Australian Farmers' Federation Dairy Council

Membership is voluntary. ADF is funded by its members through their state organisations and by income collected from other investments.

Issues addressed by the ADF include:

  • Natural resource management
  • Animal welfare
  • International trade
  • Collective bargaining arrangements
  • Industrial relations
  • Infrastructure issues

ADPF represents commercial non-farm members of the Australian dairy industry by promoting their interests to state governments and the Australian Government and other sectors of the community. Membership of the ADPF is voluntary and is funded by membership fees. It offers membership to entities operating in Australia that are engaged in the manufacture, marketing or trading of dairy products and/or dairy related products.
