This bill, introduced in the Minnesota House of Representatives, appropriates funds to support mental health and farm safety in the agricultural community. It allocates $100,000 for fiscal year 2026 and $100,000 for fiscal year 2027 from the general fund to the commissioner of agriculture. The funds will be used for mental health outreach and support for farmers, ranchers, and others in agriculture, as well as for farm safety grant and outreach programs under Minnesota law (Section 17.1195).

The mental health initiatives may include: - A 24-hour hotline - Stigma reduction efforts - Education programs

Additionally, any unused funds from fiscal year 2026 will be available until June 30, 2027, rather than expiring at the end of the fiscal year.
