Securing US Agriculture: Assessing Dependency on China
This act aims to assess the extent to which US agriculture relies on products and inputs from China. This will help identify vulnerabilities in supply chains to prevent issues in case of disruptions. Citizens can expect greater stability in food and agricultural product supplies.
Key points
The government will annually assess US agriculture's reliance on Chinese products and inputs, including fertilizers, feed, and farm machinery.
Reports will include recommendations to reduce this dependency and strengthen domestic production, potentially affecting agricultural product prices and availability.
Information from companies will be collected voluntarily and protected to prevent disclosure of trade secrets or supplier identities.
