Factual and Policy Basis Issues
The factual and policy issues encountered when developing this rule change:
1. The strawberry nursery stock production industry has not materialized as anticipated when these rules were initially developed. Two farmers in the San Luis Valley initially were involved in this industry. Neither is currently growing strawberry nursery stock and they do not intend to in the future. No other farmers have entered the industry. Dr. Robert Davidson at the Colorado State University San Luis Valley Research Center has stated that he does not anticipate the need for these rules in the foreseeable future. He was a strong proponent of the rules when they were developed.
