history
In the first government of what was then the province of Brandenburg ( Cabinet Steinhoff I ), formed in 1945, no ministries existed. The 2nd Vice President Edwin Hoernle was responsible for food, agriculture and forestry, who was replaced by Heinrich Rau in 1945 . In the government that followed in 1946, these departments were assigned to the Ministry of Economic Affairs. From 1950 until the state of Brandenburg was dissolved in 1952, there was a separate Ministry of Agriculture.
For the re-establishment of the state of Brandenburg in 1990, an agriculture and an environment ministry were set up. In 1999 both were merged to form the Ministry of Agriculture, Environmental Protection and Regional Planning .
To date, the Ministry's responsibilities have changed frequently. In 2004 the area of "spatial planning" and in 2009 the area of "agriculture" was transferred to the Ministry of Infrastructure . At the same time, the “Health” area from the Ministry of Social Affairs was added. In 2014, the adjustments made in 2009 were reversed, and the area of “consumer protection” was transferred to the Ministry of Justice .
The ministry has had the following names since 1990:
