HR 3211 United States House · 119th Congress

Precision Agriculture Loan Program Act of 2025

HR 3211 establishes a new federal loan program to help crop and livestock producers purchase precision agriculture equipment, which uses technology like GPS, sensors, and data software to manage inputs (such as fertilizer, water, and feed) more efficiently. The program offers loans up to $500,000 with a 12-year term, requiring borrowers to provide security (like a lien on the equipment) and demonstrating creditworthiness and repayment ability. The USDA must report annually on loan recipients - including farm size, demographics, equipment categories used, and estimated environmental benefits - to Congress and the public. This directly affects farmers seeking to adopt efficiency-focused technology, with no eligibility restrictions based on farm size or type.
