The bill mandates that sellers of vacant or subdivided land provide prospective buyers with a property disclosure statement that includes information about adjacent farm and ranch operations within one mile of the property. This requirement is established through new legal language added to W.S. 11-44-103 and W.S. 34-1-151, which specifies that the disclosure must inform buyers of potential inconveniences or discomforts associated with agricultural activities. The notice must include a detailed description of customary agricultural practices, such as noise, odors, and the application of fertilizers and pesticides, and it emphasizes that these activities may occur at any time of day.

Additionally, the bill clarifies definitions related to farm and ranch operations and outlines the conditions under which the notice must be provided. It states that failure to comply with the disclosure requirement will not invalidate the property transfer. The effective date for this legislation is set for July 1, 2023.
