2019—2020 and 2025-2026 mergers and restoration On 29 August 2019, the appointed Honcharuk Government did not have a separate Ministry of Agriculture. The ministry's functions were taken over by the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade. In January 2020 President Volodymyr Zelensky stated the need to separate the Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Agriculture. Early March 2020 the Minister of Economic Development, Trade and Agriculture, Tymofiy Mylovanov refused to head the newly reestablished Ministry of Agriculture, as he did not agree with the economic policies of the new Shmyhal Government. On 9 July 2020 Zelensky predicted that "at maximum in September" Ukraine would have a separate Minister of Agriculture again. On 17 December 2020 the ministry was indeed resurrected with the appointment of Roman Leshchenko as Minister of Agricultural Policy and Food. On 17 July 2025 the ministry was once again merged, becoming part of an integrated Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture. One year later, on 16 July 2026, the Ministry of Agrarian Policy was restored as a separate agency, with Taras Vysotskyi being appointed its head.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food (Ukraine)

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food (Ukraine) claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food (Ukraine) before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food (Ukraine) ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.
