Summary
To amend the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 to improve the biobased markets program, and for other purposes.
Plain-language summary
This bill would modify the biobased markets program, which encourages buying products made from renewable agricultural materials instead of petroleum-based products. The program helps farmers and manufacturers by creating demand for crops used to make items like plastics, chemicals, and fuels. The bill aims to improve how this program works and support jobs in biomanufacturing—the process of making products from plant materials. The bill is currently in its early stage after being introduced in Congress.
