We prove a complexity dichotomy theorem for a class of Holant problems on 3-regular bipartite graphs. Given an arbitrary nonnegative weighted symmetric constraint function $f = [x_0, x_1, x_2, x_3]$, we prove that the bipartite Holant problem $\operatorname{Holant} \left( f \mid \left( =_3 \right) \right)$ is \emph{either} computable in polynomial time \emph{or} $\#$P-hard. The dichotomy criterion on $f$ is explicit.
