This paper provides adaptation of the agricultural policy of Ukraine to the conditions and requirements of the EU. It was revealed that stable GDP growth of Ukraine in the period from 2014 to 2017 was provided by the agricultural sector of the economy: in 2017 its share in the formation of the country's GDP was 17 %. The dynamics of values and structural proportions of governmental support of agriculture was analysed, which showed that for the period of 2007−2017 the actual amount of financial resources aimed at implementation of governmental supportive measures of agriculture was 86.5 % of the planned. The paper proves that the defining criterion for the effectiveness of state support is the stable growth of the macroeconomic indicators of the agricultural sector. Diagnostics of the effectiveness of state support shows that the state policy instruments of the financial policy did not contribute to a stable increase in the production of agricultural products, as the dynamics of the growth of gross agricultural production for the period of 2007−2017 was not stable. In this paper the authors determined the main reasons of Ukraine's considerable lag from EU countries on social development indices in the agricultural sector. It was established that the EU experience on functioning of market socially oriented economy and state regulation of economic processes is necessary to extrapolate on functioning of agricultural sector of Ukraine. The proposed decision is to develop fundamental reforms of the State policy on development of agricultural sector of economy, to modernize the State agricultural policy and its institutional provision in accordance with the requirements of EU legislation; Economic model of agricultural sector development should be reoriented from export of raw materials on model of stimulation of the export of produced agricultural products; in the period of adaptation of agriculture of Ukraine to the requirements of EU budgetary support of agriculture must be changed from 1.0 % to 3.0 % of gross domestic product of the country.
