This bill aims to strengthen U.S. national security by increasing oversight of foreign investments in American agriculture. It expands the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States’ (CFIUS) authority to review agricultural transactions, particularly those involving agricultural land, biotechnology, and related industries. Specifically, it requires the Secretary of Agriculture to be included on CFIUS review committees for relevant transactions and mandates that the Secretary notify CFIUS of investments that could pose a national security risk, especially those involving countries or entities of concern.
