Plain-English Summary
The federal government would be required to study and report back to Congress about cybersecurity risks in modern farming technologies, particularly those that use computers and internet connections to manage crops and equipment. The report would come from the Agriculture and Homeland Security departments working together to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by hackers to disrupt farms or steal agricultural data. This affects farmers who rely on digital farming tools, agricultural companies that develop these technologies, and the broader food supply chain that depends on secure farming operations.
