Proposed Kiwifruit Research, Promotion, and Consumer Information Order

This proposed rule would amend an October 17, 1997, proposed rule which described the proposed Kiwifruit Research, Promotion, and Consumer Information Order (Order). Under the proposed Order, producers and importers would pay an assessment not to exceed 10 cents per 7- pound tray of kiwifruit to the proposed National Kiwifruit Board (Board). The Board would conduct a generic program of research, promotion, and consumer information to maintain, expand, and develop markets for kiwifruit under the supervision of the Department of Agriculture (USDA). The amended proposed rule would revise the Order by eliminating the requirement that 51 percent of the members of the Board be domestic kiwifruit producers to reflect the June 23, 1998, amendments to the National Kiwifruit Research, Promotion, and Consumer Information Act.
