Specialty Crop & Wine Producer Tariff Relief Act

This bill establishes a direct payment program to compensate specialty crop growers and wine producers for financial losses caused by increased tariffs on U.S. exports after January 20, 2025. Covered losses include higher handling costs for perishable crops, reduced export revenue, canceled contracts, and lost market access due to foreign tariffs. The USDA may also purchase surplus non-wine specialty crops for nutrition programs like school meals. Payments and surplus crop purchases require annual reporting to Congress until 2030, with funding authorized for fiscal years 2026-2030.
