The "South Carolina Farm Export Relief and Resilience Act" aims to support agricultural producers in South Carolina who are adversely affected by federal tariffs, international trade disruptions, or export bans. The bill establishes the South Carolina Farm Export Trade Relief Fund, which will be administered by the Department of Agriculture. This fund will provide grants or low-income loans to eligible farmers and offer emergency working capital assistance. To qualify, agricultural producers must demonstrate a significant reliance on exports and a documented reduction in market access or demand due to federal actions. An initial appropriation of ten million dollars is authorized to capitalize the fund, with provisions for additional funding as necessary.

Additionally, the Department of Agriculture is tasked with collaborating with regional trade offices and federal agencies to expand international markets for South Carolina's agricultural products. The bill also mandates the development of state-supported crop insurance enhancements in partnership with the Department of Insurance and Clemson University Cooperative Extension, which may include premium subsidies and supplemental coverage for price losses. Furthermore, the Department of Agriculture is required to report annually to the General Assembly on fund disbursements, market development progress, and recommendations for future trade resilience strategies.
