Agricultural Data Privacy Act

Enacted as sections 1-11 of LB525 (2026), this law declares farmers the owners of agricultural data from their farms, land, devices, and equipment. Ag-tech companies get only a nonexclusive right to use the data to provide authorized services and may not sell it without the producer's separate express written consent. It also requires reasonable data security and, from 2027, a no-sale clause in new contracts.
