Sec. 1230.25  State association.

    State association means the single organization of producers in a 
State that is organized under the laws of that State and is recognized 
by the chief executive officer of such State as representing such 
State's producers. If no such organization exists in a State as of 
January 1, 1986, the Secretary may recognize an organization that 
represents not fewer than 50 producers who market annually an aggregate 
of not less than 10 percent of the pounds of porcine animals marketed in 
such State. The Secretary may cease to recognize a State association and 
instead recognize another organization of producers in a State as that 
State's association if the Secretary determines either that a majority 
of the members of the existing State association are not producers or 
that a majority of the members of the other organization seeking 
recognition are producers and that such organization better represents 
the economic interests of producers.
