Feral Swine Eradication Act
This bill makes the Feral Swine Eradication Program permanent by removing "pilot" language from the 2018 Agriculture Act and extending its funding period to 2024-2028. It directly affects agricultural producers in areas with feral swine and USDA agencies (APHIS and NRCS), requiring them to monitor eradicated areas for one year and report progress. Key provisions include annual monitoring after eradication, expanded funding for eligible counties, and mandatory reports to Congress detailing program activities, cost savings, and effectiveness. The reports must quantify reductions in agricultural damage, health risks, and improvements from swine removal.
