A 4382 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides supplemental appropriation of $500,000 for Farm Viability Study at Agricultural Experiment Station.

This bill appropriates $500,000 from the General Fund to fund a Farm Viability Study at New Jersey's Agricultural Experiment Station for fiscal year 2026. The study examines factors affecting farm viability - including sustainable production, climate resilience, business management, and marketing strategies - to support New Jersey's 9,900 farms (which produce major crops like cranberries, blueberries, and bell peppers). The funding directly supports the Agricultural Experiment Station's research efforts to strengthen the state's agricultural sector. It is a procedural budget measure with no new regulations or policy changes.
