Grants for Organic Producers and Processors

If enacted, the bill would create a Domestic Organic Investment Program to help certified organic producers, handlers, suppliers, and processors. The program would award competitive grants each year funds are provided. Capacity projects could get up to $2,000,000 and equipment-only projects up to $100,000. Applicants would usually provide at least 50% of capacity project costs and 25% for equipment, but the Secretary could waive or lower those shares for beginning farmers, ranchers, and veterans. Grants would usually last no longer than three years, have a simplified process for equipment-only awards, and could include technical assistance. Congress could authorize such sums as are necessary for FY2026 through FY2030, with money remaining available until spent.
