Increased Oversight of Foreign Investment in Agricultural Land and Real Estate

New regulations enhance scrutiny over foreign purchases of agricultural land and properties near military bases. This aims to protect national security and may affect land availability for certain investors, while also increasing transparency regarding land ownership.
Key points
Increased review of agricultural land transactions by entities from countries deemed a national security risk to the U.S.
Additional scrutiny for real estate acquisitions within 50 miles of military installations by entities from high-risk countries.
Prohibition of federal financial assistance for agricultural real estate holdings owned by entities from high-risk countries.
New disclosure requirements for foreign agricultural land transactions, including leases over 5 years, regardless of acreage.
Annual public reports on foreign agricultural land holdings, broken down by state and county, with specific focus on China and Russia.
