This bill focuses on enhancing agricultural research, education, and technology transfer in Minnesota by transferring and appropriating funds to the agriculture research, education, extension, and technology transfer (AGREETT) account. Specifically, it allocates $11,102,000 for both fiscal years 2026 and 2027 from the general fund to the AGREETT account, with a base amount set for subsequent years. The funds are designated for various initiatives, including research on avian influenza and other turkey-related diseases, support for the Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station's rapid response fund, and grants to the Minnesota Agriculture Education Leadership Council to improve agricultural education.

Additionally, the bill outlines specific allocations within the AGREETT grant program, such as $3 million for enhancing agricultural education, $802,000 for the Forever Green Initiative aimed at sustainable farming practices, and funding for research on wild rice. The bill also mandates annual reporting by the dean of the College of Food, Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences at the University of Minnesota to ensure transparency and accountability regarding the use of these funds.
