Fruits & Vegetables
The Agricultural Commissioner, in collaboration with CDFA, enforces laws to maintain standards of quality for certain agricultural commodities. The goals of standardization are to assure consumers that they are purchasing commodities at a level of acceptable quality, to protect and promote agricultural industries of California, and to remove from the channels of trade agricultural commodities that do not comply with minimum standards. California standardization laws establish minimum standards for maturity, quality, size, standard container and pack, and container markings.
