The Not In My Barn Yard Act would prevent the federal government from using eminent domain to seize agricultural land if a practical alternative location is available for the public project in question. The bill defines agricultural land broadly to include property currently used or used within the past five years for farming, ranching, forestry, or timber production, though it excludes very small operations generating less than $1,000 in annual revenue. The prohibition would apply only to future eminent domain actions, leaving any seizures that began before the bill's enactment date unaffected. The legislation primarily protects farmers, ranchers, and forestry operators from having their productive land taken by the federal government for infrastructure projects and other public uses. No specific funding or implementation timeline is outlined in the bill, which was introduced in the House and referred to the Judiciary Committee.
