(a) Handlers. Two of the members shall represent handlers, as follows:

(1) One handler member nominated by one vote for each handler;  and

Producers within the respective districts shall nominate four producers from District 1, three producers from District 2, one producer from District 3, and one producer from District 4. The Secretary, upon recommendation of the committee, may reapportion producer representation among the districts to ensure proper representation.
