Group Membership is available to media companies employing a number of agricultural journalists and corporate membership is available for allied businesses, but it does not give corporations voting rights at the AGM.

Primary sector companies can join as Corporate Members to support the Guild's activities.

An invoice for the annual subscription is sent out each January – February, but members can join at any time during the year.
