Wisconsin for cheese. Texas, cattle.<\/p>\n<p>But California is the nation&#8217;s leading farm state, something city dwellers don&#8217;t always remember when they think about where their food comes from. Now, a new reminder is about to hit the streets.<\/p>\n<p>Starting next month, a commemorative &#8220;California Agriculture&#8221; license plate will begin appearing on vehicles across the Golden State. The plate, featuring a yellow sunburst rising over a pastoral green field of row crops with the words &#8220;Food, fiber, fuel, flora,&#8221; is California&#8217;s first new specialty license plate in 11 years.<\/p>\n<p>Like similar plates that have raised millions for conservation work in Lake Tahoe and Yosemite, or coastal cleanups, veterans and children&#8217;s arts programs, the new plate will generate new cash for a nonprofit cause. Proceeds will go to the National FFA (formerly the Future Farmers of America), 4H and other agricultural education programs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We need new farmers in California because the average age of a farmer in our state is nearing 60, but the need to fill other jobs connected to farming is profound,&#8221; said Steve Lyle, a spokesman for the California Department of Food and Agriculture. &#8220;We want young people to have all the educational opportunities they can.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Changes in state law over the past decade have made it difficult to qualify new specialty plates. One provision requires that 7,500 people pre-order a new plate before it&#8217;s approved. Another rule requested by the California Highway Patrol requires smaller logos that won&#8217;t obscure license plate numbers &#8212; which many Californians say have made the specialty plates less attractive.<\/p>\n<p>But the farm plate succeeded. About 8,300 people, in a campaign organized by the FFA and the California Agricultural Teachers Association, signed up for the plates, which cost $50 and $40 a year to renew. Many of the 67,000 high school students in 310 state FFA chapters sold plates in a grass-roots campaign.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We were sweating bullets right up to the last week, and they came through. They worked their tails off to get this thing done,&#8221; said Jim Aschwanden, executive director of the California Agricultural Teachers Association in Elk Grove.<\/p>\n<p>The new plates should raise the profile of agriculture, some people hope, and they might be embraced by foodies and other nonfarmers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think you are going to see these on a lot more than pickup trucks,&#8221; said Jennifer Scheer, executive director of the Santa Clara County Farm Bureau in Morgan Hill.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>http:\/\/www.mercurynews.com\/rss\/ci_22664366?source=rss Iowa is known for its corn.
