About us

Ernährungssicherheit geht uns alle an: Die German Agribusiness Alliance (GAA) ist eine Initiative führender Verbände und Unternehmen der Agrar- und Ernährungswirtschaft, die die wirtschaftlichen Interessen des deutschen Agribusiness bündelt und internationale Zusammenarbeit vor allem mit Transformations-, Schwellen- und Entwicklungsländern als GAA-Partnerländer stärkt.

We contribute to the sustainable development of the agriculture and food sectors in our partner countries and to the establishment of viable modernization partnerships. To this end, we advocate for reliable and beneficial economic conditions on the ground and promote dialogue between the private sector and policymakers:

The German Agribusiness Alliance also coordinates the working group “Development Partnerships in the Agriculture and Food Sector” with the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Regional Identity (BMLEH) and the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).

On behalf of the GAA: a matter of honour

Our honorary members of the board are part of Germany's agribusiness and stand for international experience on three continents.
