## Abstract

This rule modifies the procedures used to limit the volume of sizes 48 and 56 red seedless grapefruit entering the fresh market under the marketing order for oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, and tangelos grown in Florida (order). The order is administered locally by the Citrus Administrative Committee (Committee). This rule increases the number of weeks available under weekly percentage of size regulation from 11 weeks to 22 weeks and institutes weekly percentages for 6 additional weeks of the 2001-02 season. It will be beneficial to have the additional weeks available, when necessary, to help stabilize the market and improve grower returns. The percentages established for the 2001-02 season are intended to supply enough small red seedless grapefruit without saturating all markets with small sizes.
