The Minnesota Pork Producers Association is watching several policies as the legislative session winds down.
Director of public policy engagement Lauren Servick says Minnesota Pork has been active on behalf of pig farmers in the omnibus agriculture, environment, and tax bills.
“So in the tax bill on the Senate side there are some fixes to homestead valuations, things that have helped catch back up with inflation. But then also the realities of land prices and homestead values and things like that.”
The Minnesota House and Senate both passed agriculture bills earlier this month and Servick tells Brownfield changes to the state’s Board of Animal Health will be considered during conference committee.
