This bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 25.341, by adding a new subdivision that authorizes commercial feed licensees to employ licensed veterinarians. The new legal language specifies that, despite existing regulations under section 156.11, individuals required to obtain a commercial feed license can hire veterinarians without needing to organize as a professional firm under the Minnesota Professional Firms Act.

The bill allows these veterinarians to practice veterinary medicine and provide services to the customers of the commercial feed licensees, thereby enhancing the support available to those involved in the agricultural sector. This change aims to streamline the process for commercial feed licensees to access veterinary services, ultimately benefiting their operations and customer service.
