Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont has signed two bipartisan bills aimed at strengthening the state’s agriculture industry. The measures include new tax credits for farmers investing in equipment and infrastructure, increased property tax exemptions, and civil liability protection for agritourism operations. The legislation also creates a grant program to improve farmers’ access to land, which officials say is a major barrier for new growers. Supporters say the bills will lower costs, preserve farmland, and support long-term growth in the state’s ag sector.
