The role of Agricultural Commissioner is critically important to our region. California is the only U.S. state with an Agricultural Commissioner system overseeing agriculture related regulatory processes. Stanislaus County has a $3.5 billion annual crop value. The Agricultural Commissioner serves the local industry in a myriad of ways; pest detection and abatements, permitting, inspections, export services and employee safety to name a few. As Sealers of Weights & Measures, the oversight assures equity in the marketplace.
Bagri enjoys serving the Stanislaus region as the Ag Commissioner of a county which ranks 5th in agricultural sales throughout California and strives to guide the County in supporting the ag industry locally.
