What the document says
“is amended by striking "fiscal year 2024, to remain available until expended" and inserting "each of fiscal years 2024 through 2031".”
The section strikes words in section 1672E(d)(1)(B) of the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990 (7 U.S.C. 5925g(d)(1)(B)) and inserts words applying the funding to each of fiscal years 2024 through 2031.
What the document actually says
“is amended by striking "fiscal year 2024, to remain available until expended" and inserting "each of fiscal years 2024 through 2031".”
That sentence, in plain words
Old wording is taken out of a 1990 farm law. New wording is put in. It covers each of fiscal years 2024 through 2031.
What this is about
The old wording named one year and let the money carry over. The new wording gives a sum each year. What that sum is is not recorded here.

Each distinct thing the section does: the extension of the urban and emerging agriculture research initiative, the transfer to the Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research, the scholarship funding at 1890 institutions, the assistive technology funding, the new specialty crop research figure, and the research facilities funding.
The two cross reference edits that insert a pointer to a new subsection in an existing rule.
The section works by amending six older statutes, none of which is indexed here, so what each program does cannot be checked against anything on this site.
