USDA Seeks Public Comments on Marketing Grains, Oilseeds, Fruits, Vegetables, and Nuts in Evolving Marketplace

Summary

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is inviting public comments on how it can best facilitate the marketing of grains, oilseeds, fruits, vegetables, and nuts in a market that includes both biotechnology-derived and non-biotechnology-derived crops. The comments will help inform USDA's involvement in quality assurance programs and procedures for these products, which is part of the Administration's biotechnology initiative announced last May.
