New Hampshire HB1013 mandates best handling practices for pig-capturing contests at fairs.

New Hampshire HB1013 amends RSA 644 by adding a new section on contests involving pigs. This law requires the commissioner of the department of agriculture, markets, and food to identify and publish best handling practices and recommendations for such contests. These guidelines, to be published before the 2027 fair season, cover the handling of pigs during release and capture, supervision of contestants, training for supervisors, and transportation provisions for pigs taken home by contestants.
