  skos:definition """The Department of Agriculture and Food?s aim is to promote the
development of an efficient livestock and animal product sector
and to efficiently and effectively implement EU and national
support and development schemes in the sector and to promote the
development of an efficient crops and plant product sector and
to achieve the highest possible standards of plant health, while
effectively implementing EU and national support schemes in the
sector.

The Department places huge emphasis on safety and quality.  Over
many years the Department has driven standards up and has
contributed to the international recognition of Ireland as a
centre of excellence for food production.

The Department also aims to develop an internationally
competitive agri-food sector and to support and facilitate trade
in agriculture and food products and to promote the development
of an efficient primary agriculture sector while ensuring the
retention, in so far as is practicable, of the highest number of
farm households. For the food industry, our aim it to promote
the growth of a competitive, consumer-orientated and added value
food processing sector.

The Department is charged with promoting best practice in
relation to animal health and welfare, preventing, wherever
possible, animal disease outbreaks and welfare problems and,
where such difficulties do arise, dealing with them in the most
effective and efficient manner having regard to, all relevant
national and international legal requirements and the interests
of the animals themselves.
