Limes and Avocados Grown in Florida; Suspension of Certain Volume Regulations and Reporting Requirements

This rule suspends indefinitely certain volume regulation provisions of the marketing order covering limes grown in Florida. This rule indefinitely suspends the pack-out reporting requirements for the marketing orders covering limes and avocados grown in Florida. The marketing orders regulate the handling of limes and avocados grown in Florida and are administered by the Florida Lime Administrative Committee and the Avocado Administrative Committee, respectively. These provisions are not needed due to reduced Florida lime and avocado production. This rule will also reduce handler reporting burdens for both marketing orders.
