The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Fisheries in Madagascar coordinates and puts into action policies in the areas of agriculture, cattle, and fisheries, as well as agronomic studies, with a primary emphasis on food safety and climate change resilience.
Madagascar is an island country in the Indian Ocean, off the eastern coast of Africa. The national economy is mainly reliant on agriculture, which entails the growing of crops such as rice, vanilla, coffee, cloves, and various fruits and vegetables. Livestock farms and fishing also play important roles in the country's economy, supplying food and a living for many Malagasy people.
The Ministry designs and executes policies, programs, and initiatives aimed at promoting sustainable agriculture, increasing productivity, ensuring an adequate supply of food, and improving the country's fisheries industry. It may also concentrate on land usage, irrigation, studies on agriculture, and livestock health.
