Agriculture Secretary Brook Rollins unveiled a new federal program designed to simplify paperwork for farmers across the country. The One Farmer, One File initiative was announced at the 2026 Commodity Classic in San Antonio, Texas.

Delaware farmers may soon see relief from mountains of federal paperwork thanks to a new initiative announced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Agriculture Secretary Brook Rollins revealed the One Farmer, One File program during this week’s 2026 Commodity Classic in San Antonio, Texas.

The new initiative is designed to make government operations more efficient and reduce the administrative burden on agricultural producers. “I have no idea how these farmers have been dealing with this all these years,” Rollins stated when discussing the current system.

According to the Secretary, the program will modernize digital processes to create a more streamlined experience for farmers who regularly interact with USDA programs and services.
