The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries (Spanish: Ministerio de Agricultura, Ganadería y Pesca) of Argentina, commonly known simply as the Ministry of Agriculture, was a ministry of the national executive power that oversaw production, commerce and health regulations in the agricultural, livestock and fishing industries.
The Ministry of Agriculture was one of the oldest portfolios in the Argentine government, having existed – under various names and incarnations – since 1898, when it was created by President Julio Argentino Roca.
The ministry was dissolved in August 2022 through decree n° 451 by president Alberto Fernández,[1] turning it into a secretariat under supervision of the Ministry of Economy.[3]
