Agriculture

Agriculture

From Florida's famous oranges to the newly developed Florida peach, the 47,000 commercial farms and 10 million acres of Florida's agricultural industry have always been an economic engine. The state's citrus groves and nurseries, vegetable farms and cattle ranches have provided Florida with an important source of revenue and jobs. Almost 90 percent of our farms are small and medium-sized family operations.

As a state Senator, Kendrick received the Florida Cattleman of the Year Award. As a Representative, he has worked to pass legislation to strengthen Florida’s agriculture industry and called for immediate action to aid agriculture growers hurt by the winter freeze when cold temperatures broke record lows. Florida's farmers have a friend in Kendrick.
