Bill overview
The CROP for Farming Act aims to modernize the Food Security Act of 1985 to encourage farmers to adopt practices that benefit the environment. Specifically, it expands the types of conservation contracts offered to farmers to include incentives for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture and increasing carbon storage in soil and plants. This would allow farmers to receive financial assistance for implementing practices that promote both food security and climate resilience. The bill seeks to align agricultural practices with climate goals.
