The registration shall contain information describing the agritourism activity that the agritourism professional conducts or intends to conduct and the location where the person conducts or intends to conduct such agritourism activity. Additionally, the agritourism professional must pay an annual fee in the amount of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) to the Department at the time of registration. There is established in the State Treasury a special fund for the Mississippi Department of Agriculture and Commerce for the monies collected under this section. Unexpended monies remaining in the fund at the end of the fiscal year shall not lapse into the State General Fund, and any interest earned or investment earnings on amounts in the fund shall be deposited into the fund. The Department shall maintain a list of all registered agritourism professionals, the registered agritourism activities conducted by each professional, and the registered agritourism location where the professional conducts such activities. Such list shall be made available to the public. The Department, in conjunction with other agritourism and rural economic efforts, shall promote and publicize registered agritourism professionals, activities and locations to advance agritourism in the state. The Department assumes no legal liability by registering agritourism professionals, but merely serves to promote agritourism in the state. The Department shall adopt guidelines to carry out the intent of this chapter.
