(a) In each fiscal year, of the money that is received under this chapter, an amount to be determined by the council shall be expended or allocated for research, with particular emphasis on the role of milk and dairy products in adult and child nutrition.
(b) The council shall select the research projects to be conducted. Those projects shall be carried out, as practicable, by the University of California, pursuant to a contract entered into between the Regents of the University of California and the council. If, however, the council determines that the college has no facilities for a particular project or that another recognized research agency has better facilities for it, the project may be carried out by the other research agency, pursuant to a contract with the council.
