British Columbia. Ministry of Agriculture : The present-day Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Fisheries was originally created by the Department of Agriculture Act of 1894, making it one of British Columbia's oldest ministries. Known originally as the Department of Agriculture, it was renamed as the Ministry of Agriculture in October 1976, and again in August 1980 as the Ministry of Agriculture and Food. In March 2000, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food and the Ministry of Fisheries were brought under the responsibility of one minister. The mission of the ministry is "to foster the socioeconomic viability and sustainability of the agriculture, fisheries and food sector throughout British Columbia." They are based in Victoria, British Columbia.
