AG2PI Act of 2026

The AG2PI Act of 2026 extends the funding authorization for the Genome to Phenome Initiative from 2023 to 2031. This legislative change directly impacts the National Institute of Food and Agriculture by allowing it to continue supporting research that links genetic information to observable traits in plants and animals. By updating the expiration date in the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990, the bill ensures the program can operate for an additional six years without interruption. The measure does not alter the scope of the research or add new funding amounts, but simply reauthorizes the existing framework.
