The Peanut Board is continued within the Department. The Peanut Board shall

the Governor, subject to confirmation by the General Assembly, and each of whom
shall be a resident of the Commonwealth and engaged in producing peanuts in the
Commonwealth. The Governor shall be guided in his appointments by the
recommendations of the Virginia Peanut Growers Association or other
organizations representing peanut growers in peanut-producing counties. If the
Virginia Peanut Growers Association or other organizations representing peanut
growers fail to provide nominations, the Governor may appoint other nominees
that meet the foregoing criteria.
