Abstract
This final rule implements three WIC Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) related nondiscretionary provisions mandated in the William F. Goodling Child Nutrition Reauthorization Act of 1998. The three provisions pertain to the use of program income as a State matching fund source, elimination of specific State Plan ranking criteria used to determine funding preferences, and use of expansion funds to increase the value of benefits to recipients.
