MINOR
The document was converted from an enrolled act (final law) to a senate bill draft, removing the official 'Enrolled Act' header and adding bill tracking details like the digest and committee history. The core legislative text regarding soybean and pork market development programs remains substantively unchanged.
Scope change
The scope of the bill itself has not changed; the text continues to establish market development programs for soybeans and pork that only apply if federal assessments are not levied.
TECHNICAL
Removed the 'Enrolled Senate Bill' header and the 'SEA 55' page markers, as this is no longer the final enacted law.
Added a bill digest summarizing the act's purpose and a committee history section showing the bill's movement through the legislature.
Reformatted the document to include standard senate bill numbering and layout instead of the enrolled act format.
