What is the California Code of Regulations (CCR)?

The California Code of Regulations (CCR) serves as the codification of the general rules and regulations established by California government agencies and the various branches of government. It compiles state laws into a single, organized format that provides clarity and consistency for how laws are applied and enforced within the state. This is essential for ensuring that individuals and entities can easily find and understand the regulations that impact their activities in California, including those relevant to agriculture, environmental protection, and other sectors.

While history on California agriculture, directories of farms, or agricultural output reports may hold significance, they do not provide a systematic compilation of regulations and rules. Instead, they serve different informational or statistical purposes. The CCR is specifically focused on legal frameworks, making it a critical resource for compliance and regulatory understanding in the state.
