12 Titles
The Farm Bill 2026 pillar by pillar
H.R. 7567 is organized into 12 titles. Each one covers a major area of farm policy. Click through for substantive coverage of what's in each.
Title I · $143B baseline (10-year)
Commodities
Title I of the Farm Bill 2.0 covers commodity support programs, dairy reform, and disaster assistance. Most major commodity policies were already locked in by H.R. 1, making this title narrower than past farm bills.
Title II · $73B baseline (10-year)
Conservation
Title II is the most-changed part of the Farm Bill 2.0. It rebalances $786M out of EQIP into other programs, creates a brand-new Forest Conservation Easement Program, and pushes precision agriculture across every conservation tool.
Title III · $8.3B baseline (10-year)
Trade
Title III doubles funding for U.S. agricultural export promotion, moves international food aid from USAID to USDA, and protects American producers' rights to use common food names like parmesan and feta in foreign markets.
Title IV · $985B baseline (10-year)
Nutrition (SNAP)
Title IV reauthorizes SNAP through 2031 but keeps the $187 billion in cuts that H.R. 1 made in 2025. Hot rotisserie chicken is now eligible nationwide. State cost-shifts begin. Local food purchasing for food banks gets new funding.
Title V · $1.2B authorization (5-year)
Credit
Title V raises USDA farm loan limits, creates a relending program for heirs' property, expands the beginning farmer pilot, and authorizes $1.2 billion in agricultural credit programs through 2031.
Title VI · $4.7B authorization (5-year)
Rural Development
Title VI expands REAP eligibility to ag co-ops under 2,500 employees, funds rural broadband and satellite, prioritizes rural mental health and substance abuse services, and gives small meat processors new compliance grants.
Title VII · $8.4B authorization (5-year)
Research, Extension, and Related Matters
Title VII reauthorizes USDA agricultural research with $8.4 billion in new authorizations, expands 1890 land-grant funding for HBCUs, and modernizes the National Agricultural Statistics Service.
Title VIII · $4.2B authorization (5-year)
Forestry
Title VIII expands NEPA categorical exclusions for forest management, funds wildfire mitigation and fuel breaks, and addresses Endangered Species Act consultation for federal forest land use plans.
Title IX · $715M authorization (5-year)
Energy
Title IX reauthorizes most 2018 farm bill energy programs, extends the Biobased Markets Program, and rescinds Biorefinery Assistance Program funding.
Title X · $2.4B baseline + $495M authorization
Horticulture, Marketing, and Regulatory Reform
Title X funds specialty crop programs, organic agriculture, hemp production, and pesticide regulation. The introduced bill's pesticide-preemption language is contested; we have not verified a House Clerk roll call confirming a floor amendment that struck it.
Title XI · $156B baseline (10-year)
Crop Insurance
Title XI expands the definition of veteran farmers and ranchers, increases premium subsidies for veterans, mandates a quality loss adjustment review, and continues pilot programs for agricultural risk insurance tied to specific practices.
Title XII · $2.2B baseline + $219M authorization
Miscellaneous
Title XII handles animal disease traceability, Cattle Fever Tick Eradication, the Department of Agriculture Reorganization Act, and the controversial federal preemption of state animal welfare standards (Proposition 12).
