(NAFB.com) -The U.S. Department of Agriculture is restructuring its Food, Nutrition, and Consumer Services mission area, announcing plans to create a new Food and Nutrition Administration aimed at improving efficiency and service delivery nationwide. The reorganization will shift leadership and staff from Washington, D.C., to regional hubs across the country, aligning programs more closely with state partners and the communities they serve. Officials say the move will not disrupt nutrition assistance programs but will streamline operations and strengthen oversight. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said the effort supports both consumers and producers. “This reorganization is designed with those commitments in mind, as we continue to nourish children and families in need through nutrition programs that not only are provided by America’s farm families, but programs that pave a pathway to better health and economic stability,” Rollins said. Supporters say the changes could benefit U.S. farmers and ranchers by strengthening demand for domestically-produced food through more efficient and accessible nutrition programs.
