The Central Coast Agricultural Task Force has been collectively monitoring, researching, disseminating, and acting on any issue of benefit or impact on the capabilities of agriculture in the central coast, with an emphasis on local issues since 1984. The purpose of the Central Coast Ag Task Force (CCATF) is to monitor, appropriate, governmental boards, councils, commissions, and/or agencies sufficient to keep CCATF Members advised of actual or potential issues of benefit or detriment to the mission of CCATF, which is the long-term viability of agricultural on the Central Coast.

We are made up of 10 central coast agricultural organizations: California Association of Pest Control Advisors, Monterey Bay Chapter, California Women for Agriculture (Salinas Valley Chapter), Grower-Shipper Association of Central California, Monterey County Cattlemen, Monterey County CattleWomen, Monterey County Farm Bureau, Monterey County Vintners and Growers, San Benito County Cattlemen, San Benito County Farm Bureau, Santa Cruz County Farm Bureau.

This site serves as a resource for all members of these ten organizations to find information relevant to their farms and agri-businesses as well as a place to learn more about CCATF and agriculture on the Central Coast of California.
