Termination of Marketing Order: Irish Potatoes Grown in Modoc and Siskiyou Counties, CA and in All Counties in OR, Except Malheur County
Docket Number: AMS-FV-13-0036
Effective: February 25, 2014
Summary
This final rule terminates Marketing Order No. 947 (order), which regulates the handling of Irish potatoes grown in Modoc and Siskiyou Counties, California, and in all counties in Oregon, except Malheur County, and the rules and regulations issued thereunder. The Department of Agriculture (USDA) has determined that the marketing order is no longer an effective marketing tool for the Oregon-California potato industry, and that termination serves the current needs of the industry while also eliminating the costs associated with the operation of the marketing order.
