Explanation:
How you translate "secteur" really depends upon context that you have not given in your question. This is complicated by my translation of "filières" as "sectoral", as one would want to avoid repetition. It might be possible to simply omit translation of "secteur" and take it as read.

"The Dutch Organisation for Agriculture and Horticulture (LTO) represents the interests of all regional, technical and sectoral organisations of farmers and growers in the Netherlands."

Your use of "domain" sounds good to me.

I have accepted this and am grateful for the discussion regarding the repetition aspect. The client wishes to translate the idea of sector so I have suggested 'domain' and he has agreed.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Gabrielle Leyden: "filières" can also be subsectors or (food) commodity chains (the idea of from stable to table!)

  -> Thanks Gabrielle. This is, I believe, about organisations in the agriculture sector of the economy - so no "stable to table" here.
neutral  Julie Barber: A "secteur" isn't a division (that's dept of a group for example), I don't think that group fits either. I think the best suggestion so far would be leaving sector off the end so as to avoid the repetition as you say

  -> Perhaps it all depends what it is a "secteur" of.
