HORTICULTURE/COMMISSION: Provides relative to the Horticulture Commission
This bill reorganizes the Louisiana Horticulture Commission by shifting rule-making authority from the commission to the Commissioner of Agriculture and Forestry. Under the new structure, the Commissioner will serve as the commission's chairman, hire necessary staff, and create regulations, while the commission itself will be responsible for enforcing those rules. The change centralizes administrative control within the state agriculture department to streamline how horticulture laws are managed and implemented.
