Colorado enacts 'right to repair' law for agricultural industry.

TL;DR Summary
Colorado has become the first state to pass a "right to repair" law for farmers, which compels manufacturers to provide the necessary manuals, tools, parts, and software for farmers to fix their own tractors and combines. The law aims to save farmers time and money and support the free market in repair. Lawmakers in at least 10 other states have introduced similar legislation. Manufacturers and dealerships raised concerns that providing tools and information to farmers would allow equipment owners to illegally crank up the horsepower and bypass emissions controls, putting operator safety and the environment at risk.
