CPV 77xxxxx — Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquaculture and apiculture services

Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquaculture and apiculture services under CPV division 77 cover EU procurement of contracted agricultural management services, forestry maintenance and harvesting services, park and green space maintenance, pest control in agricultural settings, veterinary services for livestock, and aquaculture management. Contracting authorities include national forestry agencies managing state forests, municipal parks departments, agricultural land management agencies, nature conservation bodies, national park authorities, military training area land management services, and airport perimeter vegetation control operations.

EU biodiversity and nature restoration policy — particularly the EU Nature Restoration Law (2024) and the Habitats and Birds Directives — is generating new procurement demand for ecological management services. Restoration of wetlands, grasslands, and degraded habitats requires specialist ecological contractor services procured by environmental agencies and conservation bodies. Public green infrastructure management is moving towards biodiversity-net-gain models, requiring ecological assessment and management plan development services as part of landscape maintenance frameworks. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) requirements under the Sustainable Use of Pesticides Regulation are reshaping procurement specifications for agricultural land management.

Contract notices under CPV division 77 are published by contracting authorities across all 27 EU member states on TED Europa. Verify current deadlines directly on TED before beginning bid preparation, as corrigenda (correction notices) may have modified the original published deadline. Estimated values shown are from the original contract notice — final awarded values are disclosed in Contract Award Notices published after the procedure concludes.
