The Norwegian Farmers and Smallholders Union (Template:Lang-no) is a Norwegian interest organization for farmers.

It functions both as a labour union and as a trade union. It was founded in 1913, and negotiates together with the Norwegian Agrarian Association against the Norwegian Ministry of Labour and Social Inclusion about agricultural subsidies.[1][2]

Its secretary-general is Vilde Haarsaker,[3] and the chair is Tor Jacob Solberg.[4] It has 7,000 members, with 260 local chapters and 18 county chapters.[5] The headquarters are in Oslo. The members' newspaper is Bonde og Småbruker.[1]
