(1) Membership in a state district is limited to persons engaged in the livestock business who own or lease forage-producing lands within or near the state district, except that the agent of a person entitled to membership in the state district may become a member in place of the agent's principal.

(2) If an agent becomes a member, the agent's qualifications for membership and the agent's obligations to and the privileges in the state district must be measured by those that the agent's principal would have had if the principal had elected to become a member. An agent and the agent's principal may not both be members of the state district unless the agent has individual qualifications for membership that are separable from and independent of those of the principal.

(3) Livestock producers owning or controlling base property within the designated boundaries of the state district and who held grazing preference during the preceding grazing season or at the time of voting must be designated as permittee members.
