What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill makes changes to a program that helps farmers in 16 states manage financial risks through things like diversifying what they grow, improving how they sell products, and protecting natural resources. It adds new ways farmers can use the money, including improving soil health, developing water sources for irrigation, composting, and other practices aimed at reducing financial losses related to climate change. The bill also increases funding for the program, changes the payment limit for farmers to $200,000 over five years instead of the current $50,000 per year, and allows crop insurance providers — especially those offering Whole-Farm Revenue Protection plans — to receive assistance through the program.
