(2) It is in the public interest to encourage the orderly growth and development of sustainable, labor-intensive, value-added agricultural industries, such as the wine grape growing and wine making industries.
(3) State involvement in the wine grape growing and wine making industries must be coordinated to respond to state interests and to encourage appropriate partnership and cooperation between the public and private sectors in ensuring orderly growth and realizing statewide objectives for world-class wine grape growing and wine making industries.
