Goehring clarifies corporate farming bill

In North Dakota, a new piece of legislation, House Bill 2150, has been introduced to refine the state’s corporate farming law. Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring explains that the bill mainly aligns various sections of the law, clarifying that ranchers can contract for services similar to those farmers have long been able to access. It also aims to streamline reporting for family farm LLCs and does not change existing laws on foreign ownership of farmland. Ultimately, the focus is on consistency and clearer understanding of the regulations.
