NEW SECTION added to Chapter 39-5
Except as prohibited by federal law and subject to section of this Act, and notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, a producer may sell meat or meat food products from cattle, sheep, swine, or goats, which were raised by the producer and slaughtered on the premises of the producer or at a custom exempt plant, if: (1) The meat or meat food product is produced from an animal that was raised, slaughtered, and processed in this state; (2) The meat or meat food product is sold directly to an end consumer in this state; and (3) A label is affixed to the meat or meat food product packaging at the time of sale stating that: (a) The meat or meat food product has not been inspected and is not regulated; and (b) The consumer agrees not to sell, donate, or commercially redistribute the meat or meat food product. Section 2. Section of this Act is effective on the date that the attorney general certifies to code counsel that the sale of any meat or meat food product, in accordance with section of this Act, is legalized under federal law. Legalization under federal law consists of either the passage of a federal law that allows direct‑to‑consumer sales of uninspected meat or meat food products or the issuance of a final decision, by a federal court with jurisdiction over this state, which declares that the federal prohibition on direct‑to‑consumer sales is unconstitutional or otherwise invalid. 25
