The General Assembly finds that: (1) The natural occurrence of saw palmetto berries constitutes a significant economic resource for landowners; (2) Such landowners have been victimized by continuous and repeated trespasses onto their lands by persons engaged in harvesting saw palmetto berries and have thus been deprived of the economic benefit of such resources; and (3) The repeated trespasses onto private property by certain persons engaged in the harvesting of saw palmetto berries constitute an organized and methodical deprivation of the rights of others, necessitating the addition of this article.
