The successes that the nursery industry of California has achieved have resulted from a commitment to industry-funded research that has led to significant improvements in the quality and quantity of the nursery products available to consumers and increasingly more efficient and environmentally protective cultural practices. The establishment of the commission will continue and enhance this research effort and move the nursery industry toward its potential, resulting in increased consumer value and enhanced grower returns.
