Prohibition of Agricultural Land for Foreign Adversaries Act
S 2574, the *Prohibition of Agricultural Land for Foreign Adversaries Act*, bans individuals or entities linked to the governments of North Korea, Iran, China, or Russia from purchasing farm or ranch land in the United States. The bill directly affects foreign government-associated persons seeking to buy agricultural property, with exceptions for participation in USDA food safety programs. The President would enforce this prohibition using existing authorities under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, including penalties for violations. This law creates a specific restriction on land ownership without altering broader agricultural programs.
