A BILL for an Act to amend and reenact section 4.1-13-15 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to the assessment levied by the wheat commission.

SB 2162 would have amended North Dakota law to set a 35-mill assessment (equivalent to $0.035 per bushel) on wheat sold within the state. This fee would apply to wheat grown in North Dakota at sale, wheat delivered into the state at sale, and wheat sold through commercial channels to first purchasers in North Dakota, with the revenue collected by the wheat commission. The bill directly affects wheat producers, sellers, and buyers operating within North Dakota's agricultural market. However, the bill was withdrawn from consideration on January 13, 2025, before advancing further.
