Abstract
The Department of Agriculture is adopting as a final rule, with appropriate modifications, the provisions of an interim final rule which revised the handling requirements for California nectarines and peaches by modifying the grade, size, maturity, container, and pack requirements for fresh shipments of these fruits, beginning with 1996 season shipments. This rule enables handlers to continue shipping fresh nectarines and peaches meeting consumer needs in the interest of producers, handlers, and consumers of these fruits.
