Because individual producers of soybeans are unable to develop adequate new markets for their commodity, the following is declared to be the legislative policy of this Act:
         (a) To enable soybean producers of this State to
    
coordinate more effectively the maintenance and development of markets of their commodity with market demands;
        (b) To encourage through market development programs
    
a more orderly, efficient and equitable manner of marketing soybeans and soybean products;
        (c) To provide methods for the development of new and
    
larger markets for soybeans; and
        (d) Through expanded markets aid soybean producers in
    
maintaining an adequate and equitable level of income.

Terms Used In Illinois Compiled Statutes 505 ILCS 130/1

  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
