Dealers in agricultural produce.

Abstract

Dealers in agricultural produce. Repeals provisions relating to the licensing requirements of any person who buys, sells, solicits for sale, processes for sale or resale, resells, exchanges, negotiates, purchases, or contracts for processing or transfers any fruits and vegetables of a producer of such produce in Virginia. The bill maintains the exclusion of such person under the commission merchant licensing requirements if such person holds a license under the federal Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act. The bill also makes technical changes to references to agricultural produce as a result of the repeal.

An Act to amend and reenact §§ 3.2-4709, 58.1-609.2, and 58.1-1707 of the Code of Virginia and to repeal Article 3 (§§ 3.2-4738 through 3.2-4752) of Chapter 47 of Title 3.2 of the Code of Virginia, relating to dealers in agricultural produce.
