Cranberry Marketing Order Comment Period ExtendedWASHINGTON - Jun 4/04 - SNS -- The USDA will allow more time for comments on proposed amendments to the cranberry marketing order, giving interested parties until June 30 to express their views. The changes apply to cranberry growers in Long Island, N.Y. and the states of Connecticut, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, Washington and Wisconsin. The major proposed amendments would: – revise the volume control provisions of the order; – add authority for paid advertising; and – authorize the committee to reestablish districts within the production area and reapportion grower membership among the districts.
