What a Proposed USDA Rule Could Mean for Foreign Landholders

Consider writing about:

A proposed rule published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture on June 25; how the rule would affect activities pertaining to the Agricultural Foreign Investment Disclosure Act; what to know about AFIDA’s history; evolving compliance obligations or other proposed changes that foreign landholders should consider preparing for; potential timeline for implementation of the proposed rule; and perhaps a wider-angle look at evolving requirements for foreign owners of real estate in the United States, especially under the second Trump administration.
