Agricultural Risk Review Act of 2025
Requires CFIUS to review foreign agricultural land sales from China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran.
Tradeoff
Adds Agriculture Secretary to the foreign investment review committee for farm-related deals. Creates new reporting requirements for certain foreign agricultural land purchases.
What's in it
Costs $10 million over 2025-2030 for federal implementation.
The $10 million is the federal cost to enforce the new notification and review requirement; the policy's substantive impact falls on foreign investors who must now have their agricultural land purchases screened for national security concerns by CFIUS.
