In Georgia, an ag technology bill is headed to the governor’s desk.
The Farm Monitor shows us how it could serve as a model for other states.
As farmers across the U.S. face rising costs and limited resources, a new bill in Georgia’s General Assembly is working to protect their access to the vital tools they rely on. In this report, John Holcomb explains how Senate Bill 144—now headed to the governor’s desk—seeks to safeguard agricultural technology through state-level legislation.
Backed by Senator Sam Watson, a farmer himself, the bill focuses on labeling regulations, reinforcing that EPA-approved language is the final authority on agricultural product labels. This move helps shield manufacturers from “failure to warn” lawsuits while ensuring producers can continue using key technologies like glyphosate, herbicides, and other crop protection tools.
