South Dakota Senate Passes Raw Milk Bill To Make Regulating Easier

PIERRE, S.D. — The state Senate has passed a bill that would put raw milk in its own category under state law, which would allow it to be more easily regulated by the state.

The legislation is a result of a workgroup set up by the Department of Agriculture following a stalemate in last year's legislative session. The bill doesn't legalize retail sales of raw milk.

The bill puts raw milk in the same regulatory category as Grade A milk and manufacturing-grade milk.
