This Chapter of the California Food and Agricultural Code contains general provisions on fiscal duties and powers of the Department of Food and Agriculture of California. Among others, the Chapter regulates the Department of Food and Agriculture Fund, which is a special fund. This Fund, unless otherwise specifically provided, shall be expended solely for the enforcement of the law under which the moneys were derived. In addition, the Chapter creates the Agriculture Trust Fund for the maintenance of agriculture funded programs which is necessary to ensure the consuming public of a continuous and safe supply of food and fiber.
