Initiative, and for other purposes. 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

roadblock in converting what we know about genet-
ics into useful improvements in agriculturally impor-
tant species. 
(2) Significant research is needed to fully char-
acterize phenomes and how these plant and livestock 
traits relate to genes, disease resilience, and environ-
mental factors. 
(3) This information will help farmers and 
ranchers determine the best combinations of genetics 
and management practices to improve the resilience, 
productivity, and profitability of their businesses. 
(4) Reauthorization of the Genome to Phenome 
Initiative to build on the work of the Agriculture Im-
provement Act of 2018 (Public Law 115–334) is 
critical. 
(5) In addition, reauthorization will help sup-
port a broad network of researchers, including data 
scientists, engineers, agricultural economists, and so-
cial scientists, and will help develop the most prom-
ising of the new concepts generated via the seed 
grant program into full-fledged research projects. 
(6) These efforts will ultimately promote effi-
cient and sustainable agricultural production sys-
tems under current as well as future climactic condi-
tions.
