Agricultural Right to Repair Act

HB 5332, the Agricultural Right to Repair Act, requires manufacturers of agricultural equipment (like tractors, combines, and sprayers) to provide farmers and independent repair shops with necessary repair documentation, parts, and tools on "fair and reasonable terms." The bill mandates that manufacturers offer these resources at costs equivalent to what they charge authorized repair providers, without forcing users to become authorized providers or register parts/tools. It specifically prohibits manufacturers from adding unnecessary restrictions or costs that would hinder independent repairs. This bill directly affects West Virginia farmers and local repair businesses by expanding their access to repair resources for farm equipment. The bill is currently in the introduction phase (filed February 9, 2026) and has not yet become law.
