In Australia there are currently seventeen such Universities, spread across every State and located in both metropolitan and rural locations. Two New Zealand Universities are also members.
The ACDA meets twice yearly, with additional meetings as required. There is regular interaction online. Its charter is to promote the cause of agriculture and encourage prospective students into a career in this area. The Council is the peak body and represents issues of common interest as it affects agricultural activities in universities. it cooperates on projects of mutual benefit.
It links and works with relevant government agencies and industry organisations to improve the performance and sustainability of Australian agriculture and to raise the overall education level of the sector.
