Bill Introducing Licensing Of Direct Buyers In House
A proposed bill in the House by Reps McKinnon Mooty Frimel Bowers and Davis would regulate direct buyers of livestock by setting standards for weighing grading and inspection at packing houses and markets. It would require the secretary of agriculture to appoint weighers and graders, set license fees and bonds, prohibit discriminatory practices, allow treble damages for harmed shippers, and empower penalties for violations. The act aims to bring direct marketing under open competitive conditions overseen by the department.
