HF 4761 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Agricultural products and equipment exempted from regulations governing products containing PFAS.

This bill exempts agricultural products and equipment from Minnesota's regulations on products containing PFAS, a type of chemical compound. It requires pesticide registrants to disclose intentionally added PFAS ingredients and allows manufacturers of agricultural items to submit PFAS information as part of their annual registration process rather than separately. The legislation also repeals previous rules that would have banned certain consumer products containing PFAS, ensuring that agricultural materials remain unaffected by those restrictions. Additionally, the bill mandates that any future PFAS bans on consumer goods must receive approval from the commissioner of agriculture if they involve pesticides, fertilizers, or soil amendments.
