Conseil Européen des Jeunes Agriculteurs - CEJA

CEJA is the voice of Europe’s next generation of farmers to the European institutions. CEJA’s main objective is to promote a younger and innovative agricultural sector across the EU 27 and to create good working and living conditions for young people setting up in farming and those who are already 'Young Farmers'. CEJA achieves this by acting as a forum for communication and dialogue between young farmers and European decision makers.

In 2010, CEJA represents 26 organisations from across EU Member States including one observer member. In total, CEJA represents around one million young farmers in Europe and actively cooperates with other young farmers’ organisations in the European Union.
