A new small farm assistance program, created by this bill, allows Utah's conservation commission to award loans and grants from the Agriculture Resource Development Fund to small farmers — defined as individuals owning or leasing a single farm of 20 acres or less — to help them purchase land, make a down payment, buy equipment, or cover operating costs. The bill appropriates $20 million to fund the program, directing at least $10 million toward grants and up to $10 million toward loans, and requires the Department of Agriculture and Food to report to a legislative committee on the program's progress by October 2026.
