Abstract: Given the significant role that agriculture plays in the national economy, particularly in its contribution to Gross Domestic Product and its importance in ensuring livelihoods and food supply for both rural and urban populations, Algeria has given considerable attention to this sector in order to develop and improve it through the implementation of several agricultural policies, starting from self-management (1962) up to the Agricultural Renewal Program (2014), followed by the Agricultural Plan (2015–2019). This study aims to highlight the reasons behind the failure of these policies and to examine the current state of the agricultural sector through the latest program, relying on recent statistical data. The study concludes that the sector remains caught in a vicious cycle, despite the financial resources allocated to it, particularly in terms of modernization, workforce qualification, and the increasing food dependency, especially in the cereal sector, which continues to drain foreign currency reserves.
Keywords: Agricultural policies, Agricultural Renewal Program, Agricultural Plan (2019), Agricultural production indicators.
