Supplemental Appropriation to the Department of Agriculture from the Unappropriated Surplus Balance.
This bill allocates $1,000,000 from West Virginia's unspent budget surplus to fund operations at the Moorefield Agricultural Center under the Department of Agriculture for fiscal year 2026. It adds a new line item to the existing budget, specifically directing these funds to the Moorefield facility without creating new programs or taxes. The money comes from surplus funds identified in the Governor's 2026 budget document, which the state treasury had not yet allocated. This is a routine budget reallocation, directly affecting the Department of Agriculture's funding for the Moorefield center.
