Assembly Bill 846 aims to enhance funding for initiatives that promote locally produced foods in Wisconsin. Specifically, the bill proposes an increase of $300,000 in each year of the 2025-27 fiscal biennium for the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) to support the Buy Local, Buy Wisconsin grant program. This program is designed to boost awareness and consumption of local agricultural products and improve their distribution.

Additionally, the bill seeks to increase the annual appropriation for the promotion of the "Something Special from Wisconsin" campaign by $200,000 for each year of the same biennium. This campaign allows for the inclusion of all qualifying products produced or manufactured in Wisconsin, thereby enhancing the visibility and sales of local goods. The proposed funding increases are reflected in the fiscal changes outlined in the bill, specifically under sections related to DATCP's appropriations for advertising and grant programs.
