After a recent (July 1st) meeting with Senator Kanuha regarding agriculture, including the topics of organics and Kona coffee, it was with great relief that an email was then received from his office which showed that Governor Ige had signed (on June 30) into law the legislation referred to as SB855.
This (SB855) was the effort of KCFA and others, to extend the CBB subsidy program for another two years, and to add to the program a CLR input pesticide subsidization for 2022 and 2023. We must acknowledge Senator Kanuha, and other legislators, for their support.
