Increased Funding and Support for Heirs to Resolve Farmland Ownership Issues.

This Act significantly boosts funding and extends a key loan program designed to help heirs resolve complex, undivided ownership issues on farmland. It allows organizations administering these loans to cover up to 30% of their administrative costs, making the program more efficient and accessible for families dealing with unclear property titles. This aims to increase the availability of legal and financial assistance for owners of 'heirs' property'.
Key points
Program funding is increased from $10 million to $60 million, providing substantially more resources for families needing assistance with property resolution.
The program authorization is extended until 2029, ensuring long-term availability of support for heirs' property resolution.
Lending organizations can use up to 30% of the loan funds for administrative costs, which may also be forgiven by the Secretary of Agriculture.
