The term of office for board members is up to three years. Board members receive no compensation but are entitled to reimbursement of necessary travel expenses in accordance with the rules of the California Department of Human Resources. Board member applicants must hold a current fertilizing materials license or be a representative of a licensed firm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Individuals interested in a board appointment must submit a resume and a completed Prospective Member Appointment Questionnaire (PMAQ).
