纽森宣布8100万美元支持加州农民气候智慧农业 覆盖55个县
加州州长 Gavin Newsom 11月13日在土耳其 Antalya 举行的第31届联合国气候变化大会（COP31）上宣布，加州将投入8100万美元支持气候智慧农业项目，覆盖全州55个县，帮助加州农民节约用水、改善土壤健康、减少污染，并增强应对干旱与气候变化的能力。这笔资金将通过加州食品与农业厅（CDFA）的健康土壤计划（HSP）与州水效与增效计划（SWEEP）发放，由地方合作伙伴协助农民申请并在农场落地。州长办公室称，特朗普政府已取消一项帮助农民减排与改良土壤的31亿美元联邦计划。
纽森说，加州农业养活全国，加州农民已经在应对更炎热、更干旱的气候，加州用经过验证的办法支持他们节水、养土、减污，让农场长期保持产能，这就是务实、可量化的气候政策，围绕真正干活的人来做。
第一伴侣 Jennifer Siebel Newsom 说，建设更健康、更有韧性的食物体系，要从支持种出食物的农民做起，加州正通过从农场到学校等项目，把这项工作与下一代连接起来。加州食品与农业厅厅长 Karen Ross 说，加州选民2024年通过气候债券时已经认识到投资气候韧性的重要性，这笔资金将确保农民与牧场主拿到采纳相关做法所需的工具、技术协助与区域支持，以提高用水效率、增进土壤健康。
州长办公室公布的既有成果显示，SWEEP 自2014年以来已支持1300多个农场项目改善灌溉用水与能源使用效率，累计减少100万公吨二氧化碳当量排放、节约150万英亩英尺的水。健康土壤计划自2017年以来已资助2300多个农场项目，减少160万公吨二氧化碳当量排放，相当于一年从路上减少约37万辆汽车。两个计划合计减排量相当于减少61万辆汽车上路，影响近39万英亩土地，已向生产者发放超过3.2亿美元的气候智慧农业补助。
这8100万美元来自加州选民2024年通过的第4号提案100亿美元气候债券。该债券中包括3亿美元用于气候智慧农业，其中6500万美元用于改善土壤健康与增加土壤固碳，4000万美元用于帮助农民节水节能的 SWEEP 计划。州长办公室表示，具体获资助名单与各自服务区域将在 CDFA 网站公布，相关拨款在通过债券问责程序批准前属暂定。
加州是全美领先的农业州，生产400多种农产品，供应全美近一半蔬菜与四分之三以上的水果和坚果，全州牛奶产量约占全国20%。州长办公室称，2025年加州农业销售额达647亿美元，占全美农业销售额的11%，出口额261亿美元。

Newsom Announces $81 Million for Climate-Smart Agriculture Across 55 California Counties
California Governor Gavin Newsom announced at the COP31 United Nations climate conference in Antalya, Türkiye, on November 13 that California will invest $81 million in climate-smart agriculture projects across 55 counties, helping California farmers save water, improve soil health, cut pollution and build resilience to drought and climate change. The funding will be delivered through the California Department of Food and Agriculture's (CDFA) Healthy Soils Program (HSP) and State Water Efficiency and Enhancement Program (SWEEP), with local partners helping farmers access the funding and put climate-smart practices to work. The Governor's Office said the Trump administration has canceled a $3.1 billion federal program that helped farmers cut emissions and improve soil.
Newsom said California agriculture feeds the country and its farmers are already dealing with a hotter, drier climate, and that the state is backing them with proven tools to save water, build healthier soils, cut pollution and keep farms productive for the long haul, calling it practical, measurable climate policy built around the people doing the work.
First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom said building a healthier, more resilient food system starts with supporting the farmers who grow the food, and that through initiatives such as Farm to School, California is connecting that work to the next generation. CDFA Secretary Karen Ross said California voters recognized the importance of investing in climate resilience when they approved the climate bond in 2024, and that the funds will help ensure farmers and ranchers have the tools, technical assistance and regional support needed to improve water efficiency, increase soil health and support long-term sustainability.
According to results released by the Governor's Office, SWEEP has supported more than 1,300 on-farm projects since 2014 to improve irrigation water and energy use efficiency, reducing 1 million metric tons of CO2e and conserving 1.5 million acre-feet of water. Since 2017, the Healthy Soils Program has funded more than 2,300 on-farm projects, reducing 1.6 million metric tons of CO2e, equal to removing about 370,000 cars from the road for a year. Together, the two programs have cut emissions equal to removing 610,000 cars from the road, impacted nearly 390,000 acres and provided over $320 million in grants to producers for climate-smart agriculture.
The $81 million comes from Proposition 4, the $10 billion climate bond California voters approved in 2024. The bond includes $300 million for climate-smart agriculture, including $65 million to improve soil health and store more carbon in the ground and $40 million for SWEEP, which helps farmers save water and energy. The Governor's Office said the list of awardees and their service areas will be posted on the CDFA website, and that the awards are tentative until CDFA receives approval through the bond accountability process.
California is the nation's leading agricultural producer, growing more than 400 commodities and supplying nearly half of the country's vegetables and over three-quarters of its fruits and nuts, and it produces about 20 percent of the nation's milk. In 2025, California agriculture generated $64.7 billion in sales, accounting for 11 percent of total U.S. agricultural sales, and exported $26.1 billion in goods, according to the Governor's Office.
