Assistive technology for farmers with disabilities gets $8,000,000
What the document says“Subject to subsection (c)(2), of the funds of the Commodity Credit Corporation, the Secretary shall use to carry out this section $8,000,000 for fiscal year 2026, to remain available until expended.”
The section adds a new subsection (d) to section 1680 of the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990 (7 U.S.C. 5933) directing $8,000,000 of Commodity Credit Corporation funds for fiscal year 2026, to remain available until expended, and inserts a cross reference to that new subsection in subsection (c)(2).
What the document actually says“Subject to subsection (c)(2), of the funds of the Commodity Credit Corporation, the Secretary shall use to carry out this section $8,000,000 for fiscal year 2026, to remain available until expended.”
The Secretary must use $8 million. That is for fiscal year 2026. The money stays there until it is spent.
The program helps farmers who are disabled. It buys tools they need to keep working. The money comes from a federal lending body.
