California is the United States leading agricultural state and has been for over 50 years, with annual sales of $38 billion dollars (258 billion yuan).Over the past 10 years, the government has presented rural areas with opportunities in the form of rural small business programs and renewable energy development subsidies.However, the state government has hampered some agricultural development by imposing many strict regulations that increase the cost of farming.Some farmers are moving to other states to escape the high cost of regulation on fanning in California.
