Is this program or concept in direct contradiction to the National Leafy Greens Marketing Agreement concept?
No, it is not. The need for this program came from the idea that California has a program to promote and protect specialty crops from that state and Ohio because of its more diverse and significant specialty crop agricultural culture needed some way to promote and protect its agriculture. The application of a California standard or any standard that is not custom fit to Ohio does not help the Ohio grower promote their farm products. There are a growing number of states that are devising their own standard to fit their demographics.
