Farming Opportunities Training and Outreach Grant Program Reauthorization Act of 2026

Key claim: This House bill would reauthorize the USDA Farming Opportunities Training and Outreach grant program that funds farmer training and outreach.

Abstract

(HR10914 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-10-26): Referred to the House Committee on Agriculture.

Why this matters

FOTO is one of USDA’s primary funding streams for training socially disadvantaged, beginning, and veteran farmers through nonprofit and land-grant partners, and its authorization typically rides on farm bill cycles. A standalone reauthorization bill signals congressional attention to keeping the program funded independent of a broader farm bill package, which affects grant continuity for training organizations and new entrants to farming.
