and agriculture related products. The Legislature has also found and determined, and does

state for the purpose of borrowing funds to finance the construction of an adequate market
facility and the renovation of the coliseum and to vest said corporation with all powers,

Section 2-7-50 Declaration of purpose. A legitimate and properly organized agricultural fair
is an important educational aid in encouraging agriculture, fostering the development of livestock

and awards for exhibits and demonstrations stimulates competition in these pursuits and serves
as an incentive to a greater participation in these activities. Therefore, in order to better
promote the development of agriculture in Alabama, it is deemed necessary to provide state
