Recognizing that ink produced from soybean oil is biodegradable with no known negative environmental impact, and that the state‘s farmers are economically distressed and need additional income, it is the public policy of the Commonwealth of Kentucky that state agencies shall use printing ink produced from soybean oil if the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet determines that it is cost effective. The secretary shall make the determination of cost effectiveness each year. If the secretary determines the use of soybean oil ink is cost effective, he shall implement procedures requiring its use for printing.
