Bill > HR1339

This bill, the Precision Agriculture Satellite Connectivity Act, requires the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to review its rules related to fixed satellite service, mobile satellite service, and earth exploration satellite service. The purpose is to determine if the FCC can make any rule changes under its existing authority to promote precision agriculture. If the FCC identifies potential rule changes, it must develop recommendations on how to implement them. The FCC is then required to submit a report on the review and any recommendations to the relevant congressional committees within 15 months of the bill's enactment. The bill also defines key terms, such as the "Task Force" established under the 2018 Agriculture Improvement Act to analyze the connectivity and technology needs of precision agriculture.
