Bill Summary
Prohibits the use of pesticides originating in the People's Republic of China
AI Summary
This bill proposes to prohibit the use of all pesticides, pesticide ingredients, and pesticide products that originate from the People's Republic of China (PRC) within the state of Missouri. The legislation would amend Chapter 281 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri by adding a new section that explicitly bans these Chinese-origin pesticide products from being used anywhere in the state. This appears to be a measure aimed at preventing the use of agricultural chemicals produced in China, potentially due to concerns about product safety, quality, or broader geopolitical tensions. The bill is straightforward in its language, creating a comprehensive prohibition without providing exceptions or detailed implementation guidelines.
