SB 287: Create the Farming and Workforce Development Program

SB 287 creates the Farming and Workforce Development Program to provide training for seasonal crop farming jobs in Ohio. The program targets residents aged 16-35, including individuals with past felony convictions (as long as they meet eligibility criteria). County offices of Ohio State University Extension and Central State University Extension will develop the training curriculum, application process, and implementation guidelines. The bill appropriates state funds for program operations, with funding allocated for fiscal year 2026 and beyond.
