Appropriate funds to the Department of Agriculture

LB 654 allocates $300,000 from the General Fund for fiscal years 2025-26 and 2026-27 to the Nebraska Department of Agriculture. The funds are specifically designated for the Nebraska AgrAbility program to purchase assistive technology and equipment for farmers and ranchers who do not qualify for U.S. Department of Agriculture funding. This bill directly affects Nebraska farmers and ranchers by providing state-funded support for accessibility tools. The appropriation is procedural and does not create new eligibility or policy changes, solely funding an existing program's equipment needs.
