Fund an agricultural automation industry consortium
Printed page 611 18. Department of Labor and Related Agencies
“Encourage the establishment of an industry consortium and match funding. Congress should also encourage the establishment of an industry consortium of agricultural equipment producers and other automation and robotics firms interested in entering the sector and match funding invested by the industry, with intellectual property developed within the consortium freely available to all participants.”
What has happened
- Not started
Congress has neither encouraged the establishment of an agricultural automation and robotics industry consortium nor matched industry funding for one. No bill of the 119th Congress does either; a title search of all 18,476 bills for agricultural automation, robotics and consortium returns nothing relevant.
No action found yet. This entry is the starting point, not a finding.
