The Michigan Commission of Agriculture is a bipartisan group of citizens appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the State Senate to serve four-year, staggered terms. The role of the Commission is to:
provide oversight and executive direction for the programs of the Michigan Department of Agriculture.
appoint the director of agriculture; and,
approve the rules and regulations the department promulgates.
State law dictates that no more than three Commission members may be from the same political party. The Commission meets once a month and meetings are open to the public. Citizens and organizations wishing to observe or discuss matters under the Commission's jurisdiction are encouraged to attend.
