Establishes two advisory committees to advise on equity for BIPOC and small-scale farmers in California.

The bill creates two advisory committees: the Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) Producer Advisory Committee and the Small-Scale Producer Advisory Committee. These committees will advise the secretary and the department on programs, policies, education, outreach, technical assistance, and general needs for small-scale producers. Members of these committees will be small-scale or medium-scale socially disadvantaged farmers or ranchers. Meetings will be open and public, and members will be reimbursed for travel expenses.
