United States Standards for Grades of Frozen Okra

Özet

The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) of the Department of Agriculture (USDA) is soliciting comments on its proposal to change the United States Standards for Grades of Frozen Okra. Specifically, USDA is proposing to provide for the ``individual attributes'' procedure for product grading with sample sizes, acceptable quality levels (AQL's), tolerances and acceptance numbers (number of allowable defects); replace dual grade nomenclature with single letter grade designations; and make minor editorial changes. These changes have been requested by the industry in order to improve use of the standards.
