Pesticide registration fee increase.
HB 38 increases annual pesticide registration fees for farmers and companies registering pesticides in Wyoming. The bill raises fees to $195 per product (up from $140) and specifies that $125 of each fee funds the Department of Agriculture's pesticide registration program, while $15 supports University of Wyoming's pesticide applicator certification training. These changes apply to pesticides registered or renewed on or after July 1, 2026, with the law taking effect on that date. The bill directly affects agricultural businesses handling pesticide products and ensures fees fund specific state agricultural programs.
