Food and Farm Act

The Food and Farm Act caps agricultural subsidies at $125,000 per entity, requires conservation plans for farms, and increases funding for beginning farmers and ranchers. It establishes an Office of Food Waste to coordinate nationwide food waste reduction efforts and creates tax incentives for animal welfare certification programs. The bill expands nutrition assistance programs to improve access to healthy foods and includes new conservation requirements for farms. These provisions directly affect farmers, ranchers, food assistance recipients, and food industry stakeholders across the United States. The changes aim to improve agricultural sustainability, increase access to healthy food, and support a more resilient agricultural sector.
