AN ACT relating to Kentucky-grown agricultural product procurement and declaring an emergency.

Summary

The bill creates a new law letting local school boards or districts that participate in USDA Child Nutrition Programs purchase Kentucky‑grown agricultural products. It removes those districts from the state procurement statutes KRS 45A.345‑45A.460 and KRS 424.260, while still requiring compliance with all other state and federal regulations. The change is intended to support local farmers and keep more food dollars in‑state.
