## Summary

**Expanded CFIUS review of agricultural assets.** This bill would add the Secretary of Agriculture to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) for covered transactions involving agricultural land, agriculture biotechnology, and parts of the agriculture industry such as transportation, storage, and processing. - Families and landowners: Farmland purchases would face new federal scrutiny when the buyer is from China, North Korea, Russia, or Iran and must be reported to the Secretary of Agriculture. This creates a defined path for the Committee to decide whether to open a formal review. - Agricultural businesses and biotech firms: Deals that touch agriculture biotechnology or key industry infrastructure would include the Agriculture Secretary in CFIUS reviews, which could affect how mergers, investments, and sales are evaluated. - Foreign purchasers from listed countries: Acquisitions by persons of the People’s Republic of China, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, the Russian Federation, or the Islamic Republic of Iran are treated as "reportable agricultural land transactions" and trigger the Committee's review process, with a sunset tied to removal from the 15 C.F.R. 791.4 foreign adversaries list.
