It is mainly located in Andalucía.
Since its creation, it has been growing constantly due to the setting up of training programmes based on a detailed analysis of the necessities of the market.
Granaforma S.L. believes that training is the main component for collective and personal development; that is to say, the main reason for economic growth in a country, for the increase in productivity and competitiveness of both companies and people alike.
In this line of continuous growth and innovation, Granaforma S.L. is especially interested in promoting European Projects and ones at an International level, given the recent business opportunities that have arisen thanks to the initiative taken by the European Commission and collaboration between the Member States of the European Union. |

CEJA is gathering young farmers on a European level and is considered as one of the key advocates for the agricultural sector; it is the voice of Europe’s next generation of farmers to the European institutions. CEJA’s main objective is to promote a young 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”. Its main objectives are to ease installation of young farmers in Europe, to inform, train and represent them, to act as a platform for communication between young farmers and to sensitize European citizens to farming-related issues.
|
|
CEJA achieves this by acting as a forum for communication and dialogue between young farmers and European decision makers. The organisation maintains regular contact with European institutions as well as organizations dealing with agriculture and takes part in 18 Agricultural Advisory Groups of the European Commission. CEJA also has a very close contact to other European institutions such as, for example, the European Parliament that has published a new report on the future of young farmers in the beginning of this year.
CEJA is a non-profit organisation and has, at present, 26 member organisations and one observer member from 21 different European countries, representing around one million young farmers. CEJA does not depend on any political ideology and gathers a broad variety of young farmers and rural youth representatives.
CEJA also stays in regular contact with young farmers’ organisations and agricultural associations on a global level and has strong links with different international youth organisations.
CEJA is an international organization governed by a General Assembly, a Presidium (CEJA’s main decision making bodies), and a Presidency (which is made up of one President and four Vice-Presidents from different countries, elected for a two year term). The CEJA office is based in Brussels and is composed of 2-3 staff members and changing trainees. |
