Relating to an organic policy special assistant to the Director of Agriculture.

HB 3138 requires Oregon's Director of Agriculture to hire an organic policy special assistant. This new position would track national organic trends, support marketing and trade of organic products, address data gaps, and improve infrastructure for handling organic goods. The bill directly affects Oregon's agricultural department and organic producers by adding this role to coordinate existing organic-related efforts. It amends existing law to create this specific position without changing current agricultural policies or regulations.
