Administrative / biographical background:

The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) took over responsibility for records previously belonging to the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAFF), their predecessors, and of related bodies in 2001. The frequently changing structures of these various ministries have meant that responsibility for the same food product, policy or agricultural development has often moved between several departments.
