Establishes the Freedom to Farm Act and modifies provisions relating to the Governor's emergency powers and agricultural operations as nuisances
Second Read and Referred S Agriculture, Food Production and Outdoor Resources Committee
Summary
The bill creates a “Freedom to Farm Act” that says farmers and ranchers can grow and sell food without government interference, and that the federal government cannot use interstate‑commerce rules to limit those activities. It would hold any state agency or local government that tries to impose rules on farming or ranching liable for damages. The measure also bans certain environmental manipulation and limits licensing, credit checks, and liability for food sold with a warning label.
