The Governor appointed this special study commission in 1971 to evaluate the position of Maryland agriculture with regard to the recent reorganization of the State government. The Task Force, created at the request of the Commission to Study the State Board of Agriculture, will examine the structure of the State's agricultural programs and the alignment of those programs within the State government to determine in what ways the voice of agriculture in Maryland can be strengthened. The Task Force will report to the Commission to Study the State Board of Agriculture, which, in turn, will make recommendations for appropriate action to the Governor and the General Assembly.
