A bill for an act providing for the repair of certain equipment associated with farm implements, and providing penalties.

Summary

The bill obligates original farm equipment manufacturers to provide diagnostic, repair, and software update information to independent repair providers and anyone with an interest in the equipment, at no cost or on the same terms given to authorized providers. It defines who qualifies as an independent provider, what equipment is covered, and sets penalties for non‑compliance. The goal is to give farmers and third‑party shops the ability to fix modern farm implements without being locked out by manufacturers.
