Increasing the maximum annual registration fee limit for seed retailers and wholesalers and authorizing a late fee for registrations renewed after the registration deadline.

Complete·4/9/26

Kansas SB425 raises the maximum annual registration fee for seed retailers and wholesalers and sets late fees for late renewals.

Kansas SB425 amends the state's seed law by increasing the maximum annual registration fee for seed wholesalers to $400 and for seed retailers to $50. It also authorizes a late fee of $25 if a registration is renewed between September and October after the expiration date, and $50 if renewed on or after October 1. The bill mandates that wholesalers and retailers must register annually and prohibits wholesalers from selling to unregistered buyers. All fees collected are to be deposited into the agricultural seed fee fund, which supports the Kansas seed law.
