	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 1310, as introduced, Maldonado. Marketing of agricultural
commodities: educational programs: definition.
   Existing law defines an "educational program" for purposes of the

foster cooperation between urban and rural sectors.
   This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to these
provisions.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.
