    22-4001.  DECLARATION OF POLICY. It is to the interest of all the people
that the abundant natural resources of Idaho be protected, fully developed and
uniformly distributed. Among the agricultural industries of the state of Idaho
that contribute to the economic welfare of the state is the barley industry.
Because of a surplus of barley grown in this state, and because a surplus
during recurrent years has become excessive and difficult to market in the
available markets, it is necessary, in order to provide a profitable
enterprise for the barley growers of the state and to promote employment of
labor and to assist the barley growers and those in the various industries
dependent upon the barley growers, that additional markets be found and
developed. It is the purpose of this chapter to promote the public health and
welfare of the citizens of our state by providing means for the protection,
promotion, study, research, analysis and development of markets concerning the
growing and marketing of Idaho barley.
