NeCGA played a significant role in advancing the bill during the 2026 Legislative session. The measure, led by Senator Mike Jacobson, was a priority of Governor Jim Pillen.<\/p>\n<p>LB 525 ensures agricultural producers retain ownership of key data generated on their operations, including agronomic, climate, weather, land, livestock, management and sustainability data. The law also prohibits companies from selling that data without the farmer\u2019s written consent.\u00a0<span class=\"il\">Nebraska<\/span>\u00a0is the first state in the nation to enact legislation explicitly recognizing farmer ownership of agricultural data.<\/p>\n<p>NeCGA worked closely with lawmakers and agricultural partners throughout the session to help move the legislation forward and ensure it reflected the needs of\u00a0<span class=\"il\">Nebraska<\/span>\u00a0farmers. NeCGA President Michael Dibbern testified in support of the bill before the Legislature\u2019s Banking, Commerce and Insurance Committee as part of those efforts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a meaningful step forward for\u00a0<span class=\"il\">Nebraska<\/span>\u00a0farmers. As agriculture continues to adopt new technologies, data has become an essential part of how we make decisions and keep our operations running efficiently. This legislation provides clarity and puts common-sense protections in place to ensure farmers maintain ownership and control of their data. I appreciate the leadership of Senator Jacobson, Governor Pillen, and everyone who worked to move this forward and make sure it reflects the needs of\u00a0<span class=\"il\">Nebraska<\/span>\u00a0producers,\u201d said NeCGA President Michael Dibbern, a farmer from Cairo,\u00a0<span class=\"il\">Nebraska<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>A bill signing event took place at NeCGA member Scott McPheeters\u2019 operation near Gothenburg.
