Wyoming Fertilizer Law

This act regulates the sale and distribution of commercial fertilizer and related plant-nutrient materials, requiring each product to be registered with the state before it may be sold and to be labeled with a guaranteed analysis of its plant nutrients, whether packaged in containers or shipped in bulk. It gives a state agency authority to issue regulations, set minimum standards for fertilizer materials, enter premises to inspect and draw official samples, analyze those samples, and publish the results, and it funds that oversight through registration fees and a tonnage-based inspection tax backed by periodic sales reports and examination of registrants' records. Fertilizer that is adulterated, misbranded, or deficient in its guaranteed nutrient content or stated weight is barred from distribution and may be held under a stop-sale order, exposing the registrant to monetary penalties, a portion of which is distributed to the purchasers affected, along with civil penalties, fines, forfeiture, and revocation of registration.
