Agriculture and Rural Development

Responsibilities

The mission of the Directorate-General for Agriculture and Rural Development (DG AGRI) is to support and promote a knowledge and evidence-based green and digital transition towards a sustainable, competitive, and resilient EU agriculture, rural areas and food systems. To achieve this, it develops, implements, monitors, and evaluates the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) so that its specific economic, environmental, and social objectives, building on the Treaty objectives, notably to ensure food security at all times, are jointly met.
