Cotton Research and Promotion Program: Determination of Sign-up Eligibility, and Procedure for the Conduct of a Sign-up Period for Determination of Whether to Conduct a Referendum Regarding the 1990 Amendments to the Cotton Research and Promotion Act

Zusammenfassung

This proposed rule establishes procedures for the conduct of a sign-up period during which eligible cotton producers and importers would be offered the opportunity to request a continuance referendum on the 1991 amendments to the Cotton Research and Promotion Order (Order). Producers would be provided the opportunity to sign-up to request a referendum in person at the Farm Services Agency (FSA) office that serves the county where their farm is located. All known and eligible importers would be mailed information about the sign-up period, along with a written request form that those persons who favor the conduct of a continuance referendum may complete and return to USDA.
