Creates grants to help farmers and schools add safety features to their tractors.
This bill would create a new federal grant program to help farmers and agricultural schools make their tractors safer. It would offer money to cover most of the cost of adding rollover protection structures to older tractors. Right now, there isn't a federal program specifically for these safety upgrades.
Currently, there is no federal program specifically providing cost-share grants for retrofitting agricultural tractors with rollover protection structures. If this bill passes, the Secretary of Agriculture would be required to award cost-share grants covering at least 70 percent of the costs for farmers and schools to add these safety features. Congress would set aside $725,000 annually for this program from the government's budget year 2027 through 2031.
