The Napa County Farm Bureau has submitted the following proposal for the definition of agriculture to the County Planning Commission in their deliberations over the APAC recommendations taking place on Sept 30, 2015. It is based on the working definition offered by Dir. Morrison during the APAC meetings and accept as such by the committee as recommendation 3 in their final report.

NCFB definition of agriculture

Other concerns about the APAC definition are voiced here and here and here. I still feel that it was very unclear at the time that the "working definition" was proposed and approved during the APAC meetings, whether it was intended to be a definitive APAC recommendation to the Commission, or whether it was accepted as a working interpretation of the various existing general plan and code references and would be open for modification later before a final recommendation was made.
