Office of Small Farms Establishment Act of 2026

This bill establishes a new Office of Small Farms within the USDA's farm production and conservation mission area to better serve small agricultural operations. It defines "small farm, ranch, or forest operation" as those under 180 acres or with less than $350,000 annual income, directly affecting these operators. Key provisions include creating a Director to coordinate USDA programs, reviewing barriers to participation, developing new initiatives (including $25,000 grants for repairs, land access, or conservation), and requiring State coordinators in each state to improve local program delivery. The bill authorizes $15 million annually for the Office's administration and $10 million for grants/technical assistance from 2027-2031, with annual reports to Congress on progress.
