🚨 We are EXPANDING American meat, poultry, and seafood processing! 🇺🇸
Under President @POTUS, @USDA is launching the SPUR Guaranteed Loan Program, making at least $5 BILLION in financing available to strengthen American processing and give our ranchers and fishermen more opportunities to succeed.
✅ Expand domestic processing capacity
✅ Strengthen small and regional processors
✅ Increase competition and market opportunities
✅ Build a stronger, more resilient American food supply
More American processing. More competition. More opportunities for American producers.
President Trump is putting RANCHERS AND FISHERMEN FIRST!
Following @POTUS' announcement of the America First Seafood Strategy, USDA is making at least $5 BILLION in loans to expand processing for American ranchers and fishermen through the Strengthening Processing for U.S. Ranchers (SPUR) Guaranteed Loan Program.
SPUR will provide a 90% loan guarantee to commercial lenders, with a maximum loan amount of $175 million and option to defer principal and interest payments for 2 years.
Today's announcement highlights USDA's commitment to supporting small, independent, and regional meat, poultry, AND seafood processing plants.

🥩 Let’s clear up some misconceptions about beef entering the U.S.
At U.S. ports, reinspection is required. USDA inspectors match every lot to its foreign certificate, check labels and counts, look for damage or tampering and pull samples for our labs.

A stronger American food supply starts with research farmers can put to use. 🇺🇸
Today at @NCState, I announced $3.5 MILLION to launch the National Egg Science and Technology — NEST — Program.
This new hub will connect egg production and processing research from farm to fork, helping protect poultry from disease, improve food safety, and strengthen producers’ profitability. It will also train students, producers, and USDA inspectors.
Made possible by President Trump’s Working Families Tax Cuts — investing in American innovation and the people who feed us.
Thank you to the one and only Chancellor Kevin Howell, Ag Dean Garey Fox, and @NCStateCALS for welcoming us! Go Wolfpack!
