Section 11-92A-2 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; construction of article.
(a) 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 the state that have

increased yields of agricultural products from land under cultivation. There has been a correspondingly

of the state the benefits of a strengthening...
