The general court finds that it is in the public interest to advance, encourage, and protect agricultural fairs including the exhibition of livestock and agricultural produce of all kinds, as well as related arts and businesses. Fair exhibitions are an integral and historical part of New Hampshire that provide an opportunity to educate and promote agriculture to the general public. The state further recognizes the need to support the activities of local youth organizations like 4-H and Future Farmers of America that encourage agricultural awareness and rural economic development.
