SECTION 58201-58203

58201. It is the policy of this state to gain maximum benefits in
behalf of agriculture from the results of research and service work
performed by local, state, and federal governments through
coordination and correlation of such activities.

58202. Since the Congress of the United States has recognized the
value of marketing research, developmental, and service work through
the enactment of agricultural marketing laws, including Public Law
733 (60 Stat. 966), and since Title II thereof embodies features of a
nature akin to agricultural and regulatory service functions
performed by the department, and inasmuch as financial cooperation in
those phases of the marketing field is provided in Title II, it is
hereby declared to be the purpose of this chapter to make possible a
furtherance of intergovernmental cooperation in such marketing
activities as will accrue advantageously to the agricultural industry
of the state.

58203. The department is the proper state agency for such
intergovernmental cooperation in those regulatory and service
features contemplated by Public Law 733 (60 Stat. 966) and in
relation to such other federal laws as may relate to the same and
comparable activities.
