"MS Agricultural and Farmland Wind Tower Protection Act of 2026"; create.

Summary

The bill would give the Mississippi Public Service Commission sole authority to site, permit and operate wind‑tower projects. It would force developers to conduct environmental and agricultural impact studies, obtain landowner consent, provide public notice and keep turbines a set distance away from farms, crop‑dusting routes, homes and protected wildlife areas. The aim is to safeguard agriculture, aviation safety and natural habitats while still allowing wind energy development.
