It was established that in recent years, Ukraine had been actively developing its activities in the direction of deepening economic cooperation with the European Union (EU) in the agricultural sector. The results of studies of the common agrarian policy of the EU countries confirm that it is aimed at significant support for farmers. Family farms are recognized as the basis of agricultural production in European countries.

A SWOT analysis of the development of small agrarian entrepreneurship in the conditions of European integration was carried out. Strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats are shown, as well as development benchmarks are shown, which should be taken into account when developing a strategy for the behavior of small agrarian entrepreneurship in the conditions of the activation of European integration processes. Conclusions. The study of the main vectors of the EU agrarian policy and the possibilities of its application in Ukraine showed that taking into account the peculiarities of the development of small agrarian entrepreneurship in the process of its implementation will contribute to solving complex theoretical and practical problems of regulating the domestic agrarian sector.
