## Abstract

This rule increases the minimum size requirements for Dancy, Robinson, and Sunburst tangerines grown in Florida. The minimum size requirements increase to 2\6/16\ inches diameter for both domestic and export shipments. The marketing order regulates the handling of oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, and tangelos grown in Florida and is administered locally by the Citrus Administrative Committee (Committee). This rule will help the Florida tangerine industry meet market demands for larger fruit and should help increase returns to producers.
