With over 1000 members, the Georgia Agribusiness Council (GAC) is the state's leading trade association for agribusiness interests.
Our mission is to advance the business of agriculture through economic development, environmental stewardship and education.
We are honored and proud to represent our members and all of their interests on behalf of our diverse and growing industry.
We provide weekly reports during session and monthly updates throughout the year to keep our members well informed.
We are privileged to host events during the year to keep all of our members and industry leaders engaged in all things agriculture.
In addition to our member events, we are honored to help sponsor other ag related ceremonies and functions.
The Council has helped craft workers' compensation and health insurance programs to better serve agribusiness interests.
These programs are managed by the Council leadership and insurance professionals to help reduce costs.
“ Agriculture faces a wide range of complex challenges in the 21st century. At the state and federal level, no group more effectively communicates the needs of its membership than the Georgia Agribusiness Council. GAC dues are not a casual expense or contribution, but an investment in Georgia agriculture's future. Gary Black Former Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture

“ Being a member of the Council has been one of our farm’s wisest investments. They keep us informed on legislative issues while helping solve challenges impacting the ag industry. One of the best benefits continues to be the relationships we have made and continue to make - both business and personal. Cynde DickeyDickey Farms

“ The Georgia Agribusiness Council created AgriTrust of Georgia to provide workers’ compensation insurance for agriculture when other carriers were getting out. My business has been in AgriTrust since 1994 and their friendly service, prompt claims management, and program stability really stands out. Jimmy AdamsAdams-Briscoe Seed Co.
