Agriculture; Real Access to Whole Milk Act of 2025; permit to sell; milk or milk products; effective date.

HB 1162, the "Real Access to Whole Milk Act of 2025," allows Oklahoma farmers to sell raw milk directly to consumers at their farms without a permit, provided monthly sales do not exceed 500 gallons for cow milk or 100 gallons for goat milk. It amends existing law to clarify that these small-scale "incidental" sales are exempt from standard milk permit requirements, while still requiring permits for ungraded raw milk sales beyond these limits. The bill maintains temperature and safety standards for milk products but simplifies regulatory hurdles for small producers. It becomes effective November 1, 2025, directly affecting small farm dairy producers and local consumers seeking direct farm milk access.
