General

90. Florida Seed Law

We support enforcement of the current seed law and recommend the continued use of general revenue dollars in this effort. Consumer protection of seed purchases is important and needs to be continued. Trust fund revenues should not be expected to fully fund consumer-based programs.

We support maintaining a viable state seed regulatory program. (OVERSIGHT)

91. Food Recovery Program

We encourage growers to donate surplus food to charitable organizations who will utilize the product outside the market. (OVERSIGHT)

92. Foreign Ag Enterprise

We strongly oppose any state, federal or international programs that will encourage foreign agriculture enterprises to compete directly against our domestic farmers. (OVERSIGHT)

93. Official Language

We continue to support English as the official language for the State of Florida and the United States. (OVERSIGHT)

94. Weather Information

We support efforts that provide farmers and ranchers with timely and reliable weather information [e.g. Florida Automated Weather Network (FAWN)]. (OVERSIGHT)
