Creates a new USDA advisory committee to guide and coordinate climate‑related agricultural research and data, and launches a Rural Climate Alliance Network run through USDA Climate Hubs. The network shares research, data, tools, and hands‑on help with farmers, ranchers, and other partners so they can prepare for and reduce climate impacts.
Requires clear data standards, sets membership and staffing rules, and directs a public report to Congress within 1 year identifying research and data gaps and priorities. The goal is to improve coordination, technology transfer, and a national research plan for agricultural climate mitigation and adaptation.
Referred to the House Committee on Agriculture.
