The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5074, seeks to increase funding for farmland preservation by appropriating additional funds to the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection from the General Fund for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2027. This initiative aims to enhance efforts in preserving farmland, which is crucial for maintaining agricultural resources and supporting local economies.

The bill does not contain any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to specify the allocation of funds for farmland preservation. By emphasizing the importance of this funding, the bill reflects a commitment to environmental conservation and sustainable agricultural practices.
