Cutting COSTS Act of 2025

This bill establishes a program to reimburse small farms and beginning farmers for the full cost of required food safety audits (GAP audits). It directly affects small farms with average annual income under $350,000 or beginning farmers who must undergo these audits to sell to retailers. The program, funded by the Commodity Credit Corporation, requires annual reports to Congress on participation and market access improvements, and expires five years after enactment.
