Land, Labor, and Production The Colonial Economy of Spanish and Mexican California Steven W. Hackel As the sesquicentennial of California's admission to the Union approaches, California can boast of one of the most productive economies the world has ever seen: the Golden State annually produces more goods and services than all but a handful of the world's nations. But during the Spanish colonial period (1769-1821) and the Mexican national period (1822-1846), contemporaries lamented the lack of economic growth in Alta California. In 1796, the Franciscan missionary Jose Senan dismissed the region's settlers as lazy and unproductive, claiming that they preferred playing cards to plowing fields. Senan attributed most of their idleness to Spanish policies: the inflated cost of goods imported from central Mexico and the low market price of the settlers' agricultural products deprived settlers of incentive to produce beyond a basic subsistence level.[l] During the Mexican period, when the new government relaxed restrictions on free trade, foreign trade and domestic production increased, yet to Mexicans and Californios alike, California remained a land of untapped economic potential. Assertions that Spain and Mexico had failed to develop California's economic riches increased after the Gold Rush and subsequently became enshrined in historical interpretations of California.

  • Impact of Calstrs' Investments on California's Economy
    TEACHERS’ RETIREMENT BOARD REGULAR MEETING Item Number: 9 SUBJECT: Economic Impact of CalSTRS Investments CONSENT: ATTACHMENT(S): 1 ACTION: DATE OF MEETING: November 6, 2014 / 45 mins. INFORMATION: X PRESENTER: Ed Derman ______________________________________________________________________________ PURPOSE The purpose of this item is to introduce the 2014 study of the economic impact of CalSTRS investments in California. BACKGROUND At the September 2013 meeting, the results of a study of the economic impact of benefits paid by CalSTRS were presented to the board. The study being presented at this meeting uses a sectoral- share approach to estimate jobs supported in California by the companies in the CalSTRS investment portfolio. Data from the four main asset classes were evaluated. These asset classes account for about 96 percent of the total portfolio and include: global equities (57 percent of the portfolio), fixed income (16 percent), real estate (12 percent) and private equity (11 percent). There is no universally accepted methodology for a study of this type because the impact of financial markets on the “real economy” (employment, real wages, interest rates and so on) is often debated by economists. While the impact of an investment in a start-up company can be quantified more directly, the impact of secondary investments in non-IPO shares of stocks or bonds is more diffused and complex. Nonetheless, CalSTRS’ investments in these markets provide critical financing for ongoing operations of these companies. KEY FINDINGS This item highlights the key finding of the study as the full report from Dr. Ashok Bardhan is attached. For calendar year 2013, CalSTRS’ investments in California in public equities, fixed income, private equity and real estate totaled $19.38 billion—15.2 percent—of CalSTRS’ $127.4 billion invested in the U.S.

  • California History Online | the Physical Setting
    Chapter 1: The Physical Setting Regions and Landforms: Let's take a trip The land surface of California covers almost 100 million acres. It's the third largest of the states; only Alaska and Texas are larger. Within this vast area are a greater range of landforms, a greater variety of habitats, and more species of plants and animals than in any area of comparable size in all of North America. California Coast The coastline of California stretches for 1,264 miles from the Oregon border in the north to Mexico in the south. Some of the most breathtaking scenery in all of California lies along the Pacific coast. More than half of California's people reside in the coastal region. Most live in major cities that grew up around harbors at San Francisco Bay, San Diego Bay and the Los Angeles Basin. San Francisco Bay San Francisco Bay, one of the finest natural harbors in the world, covers some 450 square miles. It is two hundred feet deep at some points, but about two-thirds is less than twelve feet deep. The bay region, the only real break in the coastal mountains, is the ancestral homeland of the Ohlone and Coast Miwok Indians. It became the gateway for newcomers heading to the state's interior in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Tourism today is San Francisco's leading industry. San Diego Bay A variety of Yuman-speaking people have lived for thousands of years around the shores of San Diego Bay. European settlement began in 1769 with the arrival of the first Spanish missionaries.

  • Amendment to the Notice of Treatment for the Asian Citrus Psyllid
    CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE OFFICIAL NOTICE FOR THE CITIES OF KERN COUNTY PLEASE READ IMMEDIATELY AMENDMENT TO THE NOTICE OF TREATMENT FOR THE ASIAN CITRUS PSYLLID Between September 16, 2020 to February 17, 2021 the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) confirmed the presence of Asian citrus psyllid (ACP), Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, a harmful exotic pest in the cities of Arvin, Bakersfield, Edmundson Acres, Fuller Acres, Lamont, Maricopa, Mettler, Oildale, Rosedale, and Weedpatch in Kern County. This detection indicate that a breeding population exists in the area. The devastating citrus disease Huanglongbing (HLB) is spread by the feeding action of ACP. The ACP infestation is sufficiently isolated and localized to be amenable to the CDFA’s ACP treatment work plan. A Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) has been certified which analyzes the ACP treatment program in accordance with Public Resources Code, Sections 21000 et seq. The PEIR is available at http://www.cdfa.ca.gov/plant/peir/. The treatment activities described below are consistent with the PEIR. In accordance with integrated pest management principles, CDFA has evaluated possible treatment methods and determined that there are no physical, cultural, or biological control methods available to eliminate the ACP from this area. Notice of Treatment is valid until February 17, 2022, which is the amount of time necessary to determine that the treatment was successful. The treatment plan for the ACP infestation will be implemented within a 50 to 400-meter radius of the ACP detection(s), as follows: • Tempo® SC Ultra (cyfluthrin), a contact insecticide for controlling the adults and nymphs of ACP, will be applied from the ground using hydraulic spray equipment to the foliage of host plants; and • Merit® 2F or CoreTect™ (imidacloprid), a systemic insecticide for controlling the immature life stages of ACP, will be applied to the soil underneath host plants.
