The Country Land and Business Association (formerly the Country Landowners Association, and still known as the CLA) is a voluntary organisation in the United Kingdom. Its members include landowners, business and professionals in rural areas. Members of the CLA own or manage over 50% of the rural land in England and Wales.
The CLA was founded in 1907. It considers itself to be the "premier organisation safeguarding the interests of those responsible for land, property and business throughout rural England and Wales", and lobbies to protect its members' interests in relation to rural issues. Areas in which it is active include the right to roam, avian influenza, reform of the EU Common Agricultural Policy, flooding and coastal erosion, the quality of British food, heritage, planning and housing, renewable energy and taxation.
