description: "(1) Existing law requires a processor of farm products, as defined, to be licensed by the Secretary of Food and Agriculture, and provides that an application for a license or for a renewal of a license that shows the applicant to be in an unsound financial condition is sufficient grounds to deny an application. Existing law provides that if the secretary is not satisfied that an applicant or licensee is financially responsible, the secretary may, in lieu of denying, suspending, or revoking the license, accept an irrevocable guarantee of the obligations of the licensee to all California farm product creditors. Existing law also requires a licensee or applicant to furnish and maintain an irrevocable guarantee if the secretary determines that, in the preceding 4 years, the person has engaged in certain conduct, including a violation that resulted in license revocation."
