Agriculture Code

Pennsylvania · Agriculture · §§ 3-101 to 3-99901 · 293 sections

Overview

The Agriculture Code addresses agricultural programs and related regulatory matters in Pennsylvania, chiefly by creating grant programs that support agricultural projects, youth agriculture organizations, and specialty crop production. It sets out how those programs operate — defining eligible applicants and projects, reimbursable costs, application and award procedures, allocation and distribution of funds, permitted uses of grant money by recipients, and audit and recordkeeping obligations — and establishes a dedicated fund and a governing board along with rulemaking authority. The act also regulates fireworks, distinguishing display from consumer fireworks and covering agricultural uses, sales locations, facility conditions, licensing fees, inspections, license refusal, suspension or revocation, and the scope of municipal regulation.
