Interim study on market-sensitive crops and ag technology

This Montana joint resolution directs the Legislative Council to conduct an interim study on how market-sensitive crops and agricultural technologies impact the state's agricultural export markets. The study will examine existing export channels, shipping practices, import restrictions from foreign markets, and the financial effects of these factors on Montana producers. It will also analyze the costs and benefits of using such crops and technologies, including their impact on conventional and organic farming operations. The committee must complete the study by September 15, 2026, and submit its findings to the 70th Legislature.
