Specialty Crop Domestic Market Promotion and Development Program Act of 2025
This bill establishes a federal grant program to boost domestic sales of U.S.-grown specialty crops (like fruits, vegetables, nuts, and nursery products). It authorizes $75 million annually to fund grants for eligible organizations - such as agricultural trade groups, cooperatives, or state agencies - that develop marketing plans for domestic promotion. Grantees must provide at least 25% non-Federal matching funds (including in-kind support) and cannot use funds to promote foreign products or most for-profit corporations. The program includes strict oversight, requiring annual reviews, spending audits, and evaluations to ensure funds effectively expand domestic markets for specialty crops.
