Grants for Climate Action in Agriculture: Supporting Farmers and Resilience.

This law allocates $150 million annually until 2031 for grants to organizations assisting farmers in climate change adaptation and mitigation efforts. The funding aims to support new practices that increase farm resilience against extreme weather and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Farmers can expect increased technical and financial aid, particularly those from historically underserved groups.
