Smoke Exposure Research Act of 2025
This bill directs the USDA to fund research on wildfire smoke's impact on wine grapes and wine. It requires the Secretary of Agriculture to identify smoke compounds, develop testing methods, create a background database of natural smoke levels, and create tools to reduce exposure - working with universities in California, Oregon, and Washington. The research aims to help winegrowers affected by wildfire smoke, which has increasingly damaged crops in those states. It authorizes $6.5 million annually for fiscal years 2026-2030 to support this work.
