We did
it! Congratulations to the agricultural community, FFA and everyone who made
this opportunity to create a California agriculture license plate a reality! We
have collected 8,355 plate orders – meeting DMV’s threshold of 7,500
applications to establish a California Special Interest License Plate.
The California Agriculture License Plate will support future generations of
farmers and ranchers through agricultural education, career awareness, career
training and youth leadership programs. Proceeds generated through plate renewal
fees will be awarded to agricultural education groups to support youth education
and enrichment. It is anticipated that the first funding for educational
programs will become available in July 2013.
CDFA is still working the
Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to incorporate the license plate into
official order forms and online registration – these should become available
before the end of this year. Updates will be posted to the CalAgPlate facebook
and twitter accounts.
If you would like to join the agriculture community
and order a license plate today, applications are being accepted and processed
through the DMV. Simply complete the
order form, then follow
the payment and mailing
instructions.
The Cal Agriculture License Plate is a great achievement
for the agricultural community. Special thanks to all those individuals who made
this initiative a success.
