Oranges and Grapefruit Grown in the Lower Rio Grande Valley in Texas; Revision of Special Purpose Exemption Provisions

Короткий зміст

This final rule revises the administrative rules and regulations in effect under the Texas citrus marketing order. The revision eliminates the provision which exempts fruit handled for home use from the order's grade, size, pack, container, inspection and assessment requirements. This rule will help prevent unauthorized shipments of uninspected citrus from being shipped out of the production area. Individuals will continue to be able to handle up to 400 pounds of citrus per day exempt from order requirements which should be sufficient for fruit purchased for home use.
