California Food and Agricultural Code Statutory History

Food and Agricultural Code: Derived from former Agricultural acts and older codes, such as the former Political Code in 1872, the current Food and Agricultural Code was so designated in 1972 when the Agricultural Code of 1967, originally adopted in 1933, was renamed. Besides covering the Department of Food and Agricultural, this code also addresses farm animals and poultry in general, protection of meat and poultry, domestic animals, expositions and fairs, plant quarantine and pest control, animal and poultry commercial feeds, produce, cooperatives, farm products trusts, marketing laws, numerous produce commissions, and dairy and milk products, just to name a few.
