The Maritime Farmers' Council is a regional co-ordinating organization representing the three maritime Federations of Agriculture (New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island) plus Co-op Atlantic ( a feed manufacturing wholesaling co-operative organization). Its purpose is to co-ordinate those activities which are regional in scope, and to formulate policies representative of its member-organizations so as to make their views known to outside organizations and agencies. It also serves an educational role, planning workshops and co-ordinating conferences to deal with current issues. The Council serves as a resource used to develop agricultural policies within the Maritime region. The Council's operations are funded by its four member-organizations.
