The bill appropriates a total of $5,900,000 from the general fund for the county feedlot program in Minnesota, with $2,950,000 allocated for fiscal year 2026 and another $2,950,000 for fiscal year 2027. These funds are designated for grants to delegated counties to support the administration of the county feedlot program as outlined in Minnesota Statutes, section 116.0711, subdivisions 2 and 3.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that any remaining funds from the first year of the appropriation will be available for use in the second year, ensuring continuity and support for the program over the two fiscal years. This funding aims to enhance the management and oversight of feedlots at the county level, contributing to environmental protection and compliance with state regulations.
