USDA issues National Farm Security Action Plan

  1. Original Date Announced

    July 8, 2025

    Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem announced the USDA's National Farm Security Action Plan as part of the "next pillar" of the "Make Agriculture Great Again" initiative.

    Among other things, the plan identifies land ownership by noncitizens--especially from “countries of concern" or "foreign adversaries"--as a national security risk and proposes legislative and executive actions to block farmland acquisitions by these individuals. Additionally, the plan calls for preserving programs such as SNAP for “truly needy individuals legally in the United States,” expanding due diligence and program reviews to prevent foreign influence in USDA-funded research and agricultural programs, and broadly preventing access to USDA resources by foreign adversaries.
