Introduced Text

Designates eggplant as New Jersey State Crop.

New Jersey Senate Bill 4082 designates the eggplant as the State Crop. This bill recognizes the eggplant's popularity and economic impact in New Jersey, where it is a top producer. The state's warm, humid summers and well-draining soil make it ideal for growing eggplants, which are sold locally and internationally. Eggplants are also a nutritious addition to diets, and New Jersey restaurants serve a variety of international eggplant-based dishes. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
