What happened
The Trump administration is providing nearly $600 million in federal funding to eight fertilizer projects through the USDA's Fertilizer Investment & Expansion for Long-Term Domestic Supply (FIELDS) Program. This funding is part of a push to reduce U.S. dependence on volatile global supply chains. The projects represent over $1.3 billion in total proposed investment.
