The resolution directs the Legislative Management of North Dakota to conduct a study on the costs and effects of planting sterile monoculture invasive plants compared to native prairie plants within the state. It acknowledges the diversity of grasses and plants in North Dakota, highlighting the importance of assessing whether native or foreign plants better support the state's ecosystems.

The study will encompass a comparison of various practices, including mowing, seeding, and the application of herbicides and pesticides, as well as the associated costs and ecological impacts of each type of plant. The findings and recommendations from this study, along with any necessary legislation for implementation, are to be reported to the Seventieth Legislative Assembly.
