California uses new bill to track foreign investment impact
The Agricultural Council notes that bill SB 2320 would shift foreign direct investment data for California to the Department of Commerce Office of Economic Research. By 1990 and each year after for five years, a report on foreign direct investment in the state would be published, replacing voluntary data collection. The piece cites Japan as a major investor and lists firms expanding into California, highlighting the growing influence on food and fiber industries. Leland H. Ruth of the Agricultural Council of America commented on policy implications.
