Investments for Farm Modernization and Food Supply Security

Start Date: 27/02/2026
End Date: N/A

Description

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced more than US$1 billion in investments and a three-pillar plan to accelerate farm modernization and long-term food supply security. The plan seeks to better understand chemical risks to individual and population health, increase federal investment in regenerative agriculture practices and education, and spur private sector innovation in farm modernization by reducing red tape and matching private funding. The package includes US$840 million from USDA, US$200 million from HHS and US$30 million from EPA.

Observations

Review whether this initiative should be linked to Executive Order 14212, the Make America Healthy Again Commission, the executive order related to elemental phosphorus and glyphosate-based herbicides, and the regenerative agriculture and farm resilience framework if they already exist in OPSAa.
