The PRODUCE Act reauthorizes the USDA's Office of Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production, which supports farming and food production initiatives in cities and urban areas. The bill extends the office's authorization through 2030 (previously set to expire in 2023) and doubles its annual funding from $25 million to $50 million per year for fiscal years 2025 through 2030. This legislation aims to help urban communities access fresh, locally-grown food by supporting innovative agricultural projects in cities. The bill was introduced by a bipartisan group of House members and referred to the Agriculture Committee.
