Agricultural Cooperative Energy Savings Act of 2025

HR 6093, the Agricultural Cooperative Energy Savings Act of 2025, expands eligibility for certain USDA programs to include agricultural cooperatives with fewer than 2,500 employees. This change directly affects smaller agricultural cooperatives that previously did not qualify under existing rules. The bill amends Section 9007(c)(1)(A)(i) of the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 to add these cooperatives to the list of eligible participants. The key mechanism is simply broadening the definition of qualifying entities for existing USDA program access. This is a procedural change to eligibility criteria, not a new program.
