The Benefits of Associate Membership
Before the changes to the Statutes and By-laws in 2006
manufacturers and other farmer-related service providers were unable to receive
official recognition within ICAR. This philosophy stemmed from the original
concepts of ICAR which revolved around traditional herd recording and genetic
evaluation activities and the organisations which carried them out. The changes
brought about by technology, competition, financial structures, farming
methods, markets and cultures, regulation and legislation impinge on all who
have anything to do with agriculture. ICAR recognizes these changes and that it
is not immune to them. The change in policy is designed to bring together, or
encompass, all those who embrace the ICAR objectives to mutual benefit.
The benefits to commercial organisations, or companies, in
Associate Membership are:
-
To be able to
participate in ICAR activities in their own right..
-
To have the
opportunity to have input into ICAR policy development at all levels.
-
To have the
opportunity to meet decision-makers and influencers on an international basis,
both of developing and more mature markets.
-
To have
preferential access to display and presentation opportunities at ICAR
gatherings with attendant national and international publicity.
-
To be able to utilize
their ICAR membership in corporate marketing and sales.
-
To access special
rates at ICAR events, including Annual General meetings.
