Senate Bill 412 mandates the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) to create and maintain a farmland link program within its Farm Center. This program aims to connect property owners and agricultural operators with individuals looking to use land exclusively for agricultural purposes. The bill authorizes DATCP to provide various forms of assistance, including support for land transfers, collaboration with nonprofit organizations to facilitate connections, and the publication of informational resources related to the program. Additionally, DATCP is required to establish a public website for the program.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that DATCP must submit an annual report to the governor and relevant legislative committees detailing the number of farms, acres, and users served by the farmland link program in the previous year. This initiative is designed to enhance agricultural land use and support the agricultural community in Wisconsin.
