Blocks certain foreign governments from buying U.S. farmland near military bases or controlling U.S. agriculture businesses.
This bill would stop certain foreign governments from buying U.S. farmland near sensitive military sites or taking control of U.S. agriculture businesses. It would require a government committee to review these deals and give the Secretary of Agriculture a say in the process. Currently, there are no explicit rules to block these specific types of agricultural investments.
Today, there are no explicit rules requiring the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) to review all reported agricultural land deals, nor is the Secretary of Agriculture a permanent member for agriculture-related transactions. This bill would require CFIUS to review certain agricultural land transactions within 30 days, add the Secretary of Agriculture to CFIUS for these deals, and mandate the President to block certain agricultural land or business purchases by specific foreign governments near sensitive U.S. government facilities.
