. Opportunity exists for continued growth and expansion of the
nursery industry by creating new markets. The success of such an
expansion program is uniquely dependent upon effective research and
public education, since the creation of new markets is essentially a
matter of educating and informing people of the use, value, and
availability of nursery products and enhancing the reputation of the
California nursery products industry. The expansion of the nursery
industry also provides an important and expanding source of jobs for
many people in this state, including many residing in historically
depressed areas of the state, and it serves to ensure the
preservation of an agrarian society. The expansion also provides
pathways for the unemployed, the poor, unskilled laborers,
rehabilitated inmates, and other disadvantaged groups to learn
valuable professional nursery skills and obtain seasonal or permanent
employment with career potential.
