This bill expands South Dakota's grain purchasing regulations to cover more types of agreements and products. It broadens the definition of "grain buyer" to include anyone contracting to purchase grain regardless of where it's delivered or when title transfers, and expands what counts as "grain" to include beans, pulse crops, and oil seeds (while still excluding seed grain and livestock feed). The changes also clarify that grain purchase contracts can be written or oral and cover various pricing structures and timelines.
