RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE the 2019 Annual Crop Report and AUTHORIZE the Agricultural Commissioner, or designee, to submit the publication to the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA).

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

Section 2272 and 2279 of the California Food and Agriculture Code requires the County Agricultural Commissioner to submit an annual report to the State Secretary of CDFA. Data in this report is to be collected and prepared in a manner that will provide the most reliable and accurate estimates of acreage, yield, production, and value. The material is to be presented in a uniform manner, so reports across counties are comparable and of the maximum value to CDFA. The report provides core agricultural statistical data and programmatic information. It includes information about what is being done to eradicate, control, or manage pests. It contains information about the many sources of food production in the County, including commercial and small-scale diversified farms, community and school gardens, and nurseries and livestock production. The report details the work of the Department's staff to support a robust agricultural industry.



CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

A negative action would delay or prevent filing the required county crop report. This would cause a breach in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) and the California Agricultural Commissioners and Sealers Association (CACASA).
