The North Dakota Irrigation Association (NDIA) is a non-profit, statewide organization composed of irrigators, potential irrigators, irrigation equipment dealers and suppliers, processors, energy suppliers, irrigation districts, businesses and other supporters of irrigation and economic development in North Dakota. It was reorganized in 2004 by a merger of the North Dakota Irrigation Caucus and the High-Value Irrigated Crops Task Force. The combined resources provided a stronger base to accomplish the mission of NDIA.

Coordination and communication, organization and support of irrigation districts and projects, developing partnerships between irrigators and economic developers, developing and expanding high-value crop production and processing opportunities, coordinating irrigation research projects and initiatives, establishing favorable irrigation financing programs, securing funding for irrigation development, and obtaining federal hydropower benefits for irrigation districts are some of NDIA's major undertakings.
