The California legislature passed a bill outlawing land sales to foreign countries to help protect the nation’s food supply.

The bill would direct the state’s Ag Department to release annual reports on the amount of foreign farmland utilized, the type of usage, and “any legislative, regulatory, or administrative policy recommendations in light of the information from the annual report.”
