Funding Farm Programs: Ensuring Uninterrupted Services for Farmers During Shutdowns.

This law aims to guarantee that essential services for farmers, including loans and support programs managed by the Farm Service Agency (FSA), continue without interruption during Fiscal Year 2026. It provides emergency funding to the Department of Agriculture if a full budget is not enacted, shielding farmers from the financial instability caused by potential government shutdowns. The funding also covers services that may have been previously halted due to funding lapses.
