USDA cancels $3.1B climate program, rebrands with requirement for more direct farmer funding.
The USDA has canceled the $3.1 billion Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities program, citing high administrative fees and a lack of direct funding to farmers.
The University of Idaho lost a $59 million grant aimed at sustainable agriculture due to these changes.
The program will be rebranded as the Advancing Markets for Producers Initiative, requiring at least 65% of funds to go directly to farmers.
Current grant recipients must reapply by June 20 to meet the new criteria.
Critics argue the decision is politically motivated and may hinder sustainable farming practices.
