The article examines how Ukraine is transforming its agricultural policy to align it with European standards and the requirements of the EU Common Agricultural Policy. 

The EU Common Agricultural Policy is a system of measures designed to promote sustainable agricultural development, market stability, and ensure food security. 

The main directions of the EU policy include increasing agricultural efficiency, the rational use of natural resources, and the development of agricultural production in a manner that maintains a balance between economic, social, and environmental needs.

The primary social objective of the Common Agricultural Policy is to enhance farmers’ incomes, stabilize agricultural markets, and promote the development of rural areas. 

The success of this policy depends on how well the specific features of each country are taken into account, including rural living conditions, the natural environment, and differences in agricultural structures.

The modern Common Agricultural Policy takes ecological aspects into account, supports the sustainable development of rural areas, and combines EU-wide plans with flexibility tailored to each country. 

The relationship between the provisions of Ukraine’s Strategy for the Development of Agriculture and Rural Areas until 2030 and the goals of the EU Common Agricultural Policy for 2023–2027 is examined, particularly in the areas of food security, enhancing farmers’ competitiveness, modernizing the agricultural sector, and implementing innovations. 

It is determined that the development of organic production and the “green” economy helps Ukraine move closer to the European market, makes agriculture more competitive, and promotes the sustainable growth of rural areas. 

The research results help to develop new approaches to updating state governance in Ukrainian agriculture. They aim to create a flexible system capable of ensuring a stable food supply for the country and compliance with European standards
