§ 282 Agricultural Service Fees

• •The director can check and test farm products like fruits, nuts, and trees.
• •They can charge a fee for these services, but they might not if paying first would make the service less helpful.
• •The fee should be fair and cover the cost of the work.

A farmer wants the director to test their apples to make sure they are good quality.

The director can charge the farmer a fee to test the apples. But if the director thinks the farmer should pay after the test (so the farmer knows the apples are good first), they can do that instead.
