California has the biggest agriculture, port and manufacturing base in the US basically. The county orders contradict the state.

OC is letting factories stay open with conditions and LA is saying the port stays open as well as the trains, airports (especially KSBD which is Amazon's home base). What a mess.

If the county says "you need to stay home if X" and the state says "you need to stay home if Y" then the effect is "you need to stay home if X OR Y". There's no contradiction.

More frequently though the effect is that people think "our politicians do not know what are they doing; I will do what I think is reasonable" and do what they want.

"you need to stay home if X OR Y" is the safe bet, but it's not always required, sometimes one thing preempts (invalidates) another. I'm not sure if that happens in this case or not though.

Consult a lawyer via telephone if it matters I guess.

Because agriculture and importing are deemed of vital importance and allowed to stay open.
