The National Farm Security Action Plan, a multi-agency effort led by Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, was unveiled Tuesday with the goal of preventing China and other foreign enemies from taking control of American farmland, food systems, and research facilities.
Alongside other senior officials, Rollins unveiled the proposal, emphasizing the need to combat foreign influence in American agriculture. These officials included Attorney General Pam Bondi, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
In addition to calling for extensive reforms to secure the agricultural supply chain, research labs, and nutrition aid programs, the plan includes a statewide prohibition on Chinese nationals purchasing farmland in the United States. To prevent criminal fraud involving SNAP payments and guarantee that American taxpayer monies remain in American hands, the initiative will also take action against abuse inside USDA's $400 million per day nutrition programs.
