Increased Support for Farmers Improving Soil Health and Climate Resilience.
This law expands USDA conservation programs to offer greater financial support for farmers adopting innovative soil health practices, such as agroforestry and nutrient recycling.

Farmers can receive higher payments that account for potential revenue loss or increased economic risk during the transition to more sustainable farming systems.
