Pastoralists and Graziers Association of Western Australia

The Pastoralists and Graziers Association of Western Australia, abbreviated (PGA), is a Perth-based lobby group acting for the interests of agricultural and associated industries.

In particular, it supports a free market system and strongly opposes "statutory marketing" and related governmental regulation.[1] It has sometimes clashed with the Western Australian Farmers Federation, over issues such as lamb and wheat marketing.[2]

History

The PGA was founded in 1907.[3][4]
