NORTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY
1981 SESSION

CHAPTER 1055
HOUSE BILL 389

AN ACT TO PROVIDE FUNDS FOR THE LIVESTOCK FEED ADVISORY SERVICE.

Whereas, it is essential that farmers are provided with complete information on the nutrient content of feeds in order to balance rations and become more efficient in animal production; and
Whereas, the Department of Agriculture's Forage Testing Service's sample load has greatly increased since its initial appropriation; and
Whereas, if additional funds are not appropriated to meet the testing demand created by the increased sample load, many of this State's farmers will be forced to send samples to a private laboratory for analysis, at great cost to the farmers and, ultimately, to consumers; Now, therefore,

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

Section 1. There is appropriated from the General Fund to the Department of Agriculture the sum of sixty‑two thousand six hundred seventy dollars ($62,670) for fiscal year 1981‑82 for the Livestock Feed Advisory Service.
Sec. 2. This act is effective upon ratification.
In the General Assembly read three times and ratified, this the 10th day of October, 1981.
