(b) Vertebrate pests cause an estimated two hundred million dollars ($200,000,000) damage to agricultural crops each year, and without effective controls, the losses and damage could reach one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000) annually.

(d) County departments of agriculture have historically provided vertebrate pest control materials to the agricultural community.
