Germany

A balanced, healthy diet, safe food, clear consumer information when buying food and a strong and sustainable agricultural, forestry and fisheries sector are among the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Regional Identity (BMLEH) most important goals. At the same time, the BMLEH is committed to creating good prospects in our many rural regions, to promoting animal welfare and to improving global food security.

The BMEL has approximately 1,100 employees in Bonn and Berlin working towards these goals. In order to successfully meet the challenges of the future, the BMLEH is advised and supported by various authorities and research institutions.
