Interest in agricultural land; amends definition of foreign adversaries.

Summary

The bill revises Virginia law to treat any business entity funded or controlled by a foreign government or person deemed hostile by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce as a foreign adversary. It also widens the definition of an “interest in agricultural land” to include controlling leases, long‑term land‑use agreements, mineral rights and water rights, removing previous exemptions for non‑possessory interests. The changes aim to keep foreign adversaries from influencing Virginia’s agricultural resources.
