HB 3087 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Helianthus annuus or any variety of Helianthus annuus is not considered an agricultural crop

HB 3087 clarifies that sunflowers (Helianthus annuus and all varieties) are not classified as agricultural crops under state law. This definition affects farmers, landowners, and regulators who may have previously treated sunflowers under agricultural regulations. The bill changes how sunflowers are categorized for legal and regulatory purposes, but does not alter farming practices or tax treatment. As a procedural classification bill, it has no direct policy impact beyond this specific definition.
