AN ACT relating to agriculture.
SB 248 amends Kentucky's agricultural assessment law (KRS 247.4477) to replace gender-specific language like "his or her" with gender-neutral terms. This change directly affects the legal documents governing how agricultural commodity assessments are processed, ensuring inclusive language in official procedures. The bill does not alter the existing assessment process, payment requirements, or fund usage - only updates the wording to be more inclusive. It affects all agricultural producers, purchasers, and agencies involved in the assessment system under this law. The bill is a procedural language update with no substantive policy changes.
