The Barbados Agricultural Society was established in 1845 by an Act of Parliament and is now over 150 years old.
The Society seeks to represent the interests of the agricultural sector in Barbados in all relevant forums. It is the secretariat for seven commodity groups representing over 500 farmers with women comprising 30% of the total.
The Barbados Agricultural Society is committed to demonstrating the symbiotic relationship between agriculture and other aspects of the national economy, as well as shoring up the country's food security through the delivery of homegrown food and by-products.
It is also committed to educating Barbadians about the importance of growing their own food which yields considerable health, social, and economic benefits.
