Read twice and referred to the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.
This bill requires the Departments of Agriculture and Homeland Security to jointly prepare a comprehensive report on cybersecurity threats facing precision agriculture technologies, which include farm management software, sensors, data collection tools, and related digital systems used in modern farming. The report must assess current cyber threats to these technologies, specifically evaluate risks from China, North Korea, Russia, and Iran, identify gaps in U.S. cybersecurity planning for agriculture, and review existing federal funding and staffing dedicated to this area. Additionally, the Government Accountability Office must conduct a separate study examining how well federal agencies coordinate on this issue and recommend ways to improve collaboration. Both reports must be completed and submitted to relevant congressional committees within one year of the bill's enactment, with public versions released without classified information, though classified details may be included in congressional versions.
