The bill amends the Manufacturing Milk Law of 2001 by updating the language and standards related to the grading of butter. It specifies that only a grader approved by the department is permitted to grade butter, and it clarifies that the grading standards will align with those outlined in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 58.

Additionally, the bill revises the definition of "grading" to encompass the classification of butter based on various factors, including flavor, aroma, body and texture, color, salt, package, and any other factors that may be approved by the department. The amendments aim to modernize the grading process and ensure consistency with federal standards.
