Boosts government research and funding for organic farming and food production.
This bill would create a new government initiative to better coordinate and expand research into organic farming practices. It would also increase funding for existing organic research programs and create new grants to help farmers switch to organic methods. The goal is to support organic farmers, improve food quality, and understand the economic effects of organic agriculture.
Today, organic agriculture research is conducted by various government agencies, but it may not be fully coordinated. This bill would create a specific initiative to ensure these efforts are coordinated and expanded. It would also significantly increase the money set aside for organic research and create new grants to specifically help farmers transition to organic methods, which are not currently available.
