The bill establishes a new section in the North Dakota Century Code to create a grasslands grazing grant program, which will be administered by the agriculture commissioner. This program aims to provide grants to organizations that represent cooperative grazing associations within the state. Organizations receiving these grants can distribute the funds to cooperative grazing associations for eligible infrastructure projects located on national grasslands. Eligible projects include water development, fencing, conservation initiatives, compliance with federal permitting requirements, and other efforts to enhance wildlife habitat and improve grassland health.

To qualify for a grant, organizations must provide matching funds from nonstate sources, specifically one dollar for every four dollars of grant funding received. The agriculture commissioner is tasked with establishing additional guidelines for the program. This initiative is designed to support sustainable grazing practices and promote the health of grasslands in North Dakota.
