Summary
The Farmland for Farmers Act of 2026 seeks to stop corporations and large institutional investors from acquiring new agricultural land. It applies to any legal entity that is not a farmer‑controlled cooperative and limits ownership to individuals who are actively engaged in farming. The goal is to protect family farms, keep land prices affordable for farmers, and preserve the land’s role in food security and rural communities.
