Section 41-10-21 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; construction of article. The Legislature hereby makes the following findings of fact and declares its intent to be as follows: In recent years changes have taken place in the economy of this state which have had a far-reaching effect on the welfare of its citizens. The agrarian economy which once prevailed in this state and provided the principal means of livelihood for most of the citizens of the state has proven inadequate to provide employment for the state's growing population. The advent of mechanized and scientific farming methods has reduced greatly the number of persons required to obtain increased yields of agricultural products from land under cultivation. There has been a correspondingly greater dependence upon industrial development as the bulwark of the economy of this state. It is appropriate and necessary that measures be taken to secure to the citizens of this state the benefits of a strengthened...
