The Ministry of Agricultural Development and Irrigation (Spanish: Ministerio de Desarrollo Agrario y Riego, MIDAGRI) is the government ministry in charge of the overseeing and regulation of the agrarian sector of Peru.[1] As of 2025, the minister is Ángel Manero Campos [es].

History

The Ministry of Agriculture (Spanish: Ministerio de Agricultura) was created by Law 9711 on January 2, 1943 by the government of president Manuel Prado Ugarteche, with Benjamín Roca García [es] serving as its first officeholder. His successor, Godofredo Labarthe [es], renamed the ministry to "Ministry of Agriculture and Feeding" (Spanish: Ministerio de Agricultura y Alimentación), a name that remained until the presidency of José Luis Bustamante y Rivero. It was again renamed in 2013 to Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation (Spanish: Ministerio de Agricultura y Riego), under the Presidency of Ollanta Humala.

In 2020, the Congress of Peru renamed the ministry to its current name, although under the MINDAR accronym.[2]
