California Food And Agricultural Code Section 596

The contract for a pilot demonstration project shall be for a period of up to five years and shall be evaluated annually by the director of the program and the program advisory review board. The evaluation shall be based on an annual report submitted by the pilot project supervisor that documents changes in agricultural practices, agrichemical and water use, crop yields, environmental impacts, and monitoring data resulting from the pilot project. Funding for subsequent years of the contract shall be contingent upon adequate progress in those documented criteria, as determined by the director with the advice of the board, and continued grower participation in the pilot project.
