Key Takeaways

•A 'major amendment' changes the rules about how much of a product (like fruit or milk) a business can buy or handle from farmers.
•It can add new rules or remove old ones about the amount, type, or quality of the product.
•This only applies to businesses that work with farmers in the state.

Example

A dairy company in California wants to buy more milk from local farmers than the current rules allow.

If the state changes the rules to let the company buy more milk, that’s a 'major amendment' because it changes how much milk the company can handle.
