Agricultural Engineers Association (AEA)

The AEA is a non-for-profit organisation which strives to “put back” into industry as well as representing and supporting our members’ needs. The AEA is heavily engaged in the skills programmes for our sector, in UK-wide engineering and manufacturing initiatives and in working to combat issues such as theft and legislative non-compliance. Our Councils for both the Farm Equipment sector and the Outdoor Power Equipment sector both meet three times a year. Our Board of Directors meets once a quarter to ensure the transparency and rationality of our financial plans. Our special interest groups include the Manufacturers’ Group; the Training and Education Committee; the Chemical Applications Group; the Sprayer Testing Group; Service Managers Group and All-Terrain Vehicle Group. These meet at regular intervals to ensure references and discussions are up to date with current issues and sufficient and relevant actions take place.
