The bill proposes the repeal of a specific reporting requirement related to industrial hemp as outlined in South Dakota law. Specifically, it seeks to eliminate the provisions found in section 38-35-19, thereby removing the obligation for reporting associated with industrial hemp cultivation or production.

By repealing this requirement, the legislation aims to streamline regulations surrounding industrial hemp, potentially easing the administrative burden on growers and producers in the state. This change reflects a broader trend towards deregulation in the agricultural sector, particularly concerning emerging crops like industrial hemp.
