                         AGRICULTURE AND HORTICULTURE
                                  CHAPTER 51
                           SEED INDEMNITY FUND LAW
    22-5121.  ASSESSMENTS. Every producer shall pay an assessment for deposit
in the seed indemnity fund according to the provisions of this chapter and
rules promulgated by the department. A delivery of seed crop between
producers, none of whom are seed buyers, is exempt from the collection and
payment of assessments. Assessments shall be collected on the gross dollar
amount, without any deduction, owed to, or paid, or to be paid, on behalf of
the producer of the seed crop.
    (1)  The initial rate of the assessment shall be five-tenths of one
percent (.5%). Changes in the rate will be established by criteria in the
rules of the department. However, the producer's annual assessment shall not
exceed five-tenths of one percent (.5%).
    (2)  If seed crop is stored for withdrawal, the assessment shall not
exceed one-half cent (1/2¢) per pound, based on clean weight or, if not
available, estimated clean weight, per twelve (12) month period, payable at
time of withdrawal.
