CO HB1094

Extends the maximum duration of internships under the Agricultural Workforce Development Program from six months to one year to provide year-round training across different agricultural seasons.

Delays the scheduled repeal of the program from July 1, 2024 to July 1, 2029, allowing the program to continue providing financial incentives to agricultural businesses that hire interns.

Maintains the program's core purpose of building a talent pipeline and career pathway for young and beginning farmers and ranchers through hands-on experience and training.

Recognizes the program's success since its 2018 establishment in training agricultural workers and developing Colorado's agricultural workforce.
