Requires the establishment of a plant-based agriculture grant program
This bill creates a state grant program to help small and midsize farms transition from livestock or feed crop production to plant-based agriculture. It directly affects farms with annual income under $350,000 (small farms) or between $350,000 and $999,999 (midsize farms). The program provides competitive grants for land transition, requires applicants to submit detailed plans using department-developed best practices, and mandates technical assistance from experts. Recipients must report on their progress to the department. The law requires the agriculture department to establish this program immediately.
