Nearly 300 employees representing both agencies are doing yeoman\u2019s work to protect commercial and non-commercial poultry, and working with local communities to ensure bio-security to prevent the spread of VND.  I was grateful for the opportunity to thank them for their efforts, and I also enjoyed meeting CHP officers who are assisting in the program. We really appreciate their presence. It&#8217;s important to note that there hasn&#8217;t been a new detection of VND since June 4th, so fingers are crossed that we&#8217;re nearing the end of this project.       <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following that I went to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.parks.ca.gov\/?page_id=649\">Citrus State Historical Park<\/a>, where three generations of the John Gless family farm the trees and operate a farm stand. The modern-day commercial citrus industry was born in Riverside County in 1873 when Eliza Tibetts planted two small trees of the Washington navel orange. Protecting the county\u2019s commercial groves from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdfa.ca.gov\/plant\/acp\/\">huanglongbing<\/a>, a disease spread by the Asian citrus psyllid, is a federal\/state\/local\/industry partnership.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plantingseedsblog.cdfa.ca.gov\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_1670.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18108\" width=\"344\" height=\"218\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plantingseedsblog.cdfa.ca.gov\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_1670.jpg 820w, https:\/\/plantingseedsblog.cdfa.ca.gov\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_1670-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/plantingseedsblog.cdfa.ca.gov\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_1670-768x486.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 344px) 100vw, 344px\" \/><figcaption>Secretary Ross learns about a nursery robot (lower right)  <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The highest value crop in Riverside County today is nursery stock. I had the pleasure of visiting two very impressive nursery operations, Village Nursery and Altman Plants. The capital investment, innovation, and customer-focused passion of these two companies is a hallmark of California agriculture. &nbsp;I loved seeing every aspect of these impressive operations. &nbsp;But it was especially fun to observe robots named Tom, Jerry, Batman and Robin as they moved potted plants to precise locations, reducing the strain on human backs!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want to thank Riverside County agricultural commissioner Ruben Arroyo for hosting me.
