Abstract

This bulletin describes the purpose of Federal marketing orders and their effects on growers, marketers, input suppliers, food processors, and consumers. Many Federal marketing orders have regulations for funding promotion and research and for establishing package, container, grade, and size requirements. These regulations intend to boost sales by increasing buyer awareness of the product, developing more desirable products, and reducing marketing costs . A few marketing orders, with regulations that control the volume of produce entering certain markets, are Intended to even out supplies and prices. These regulations can raise farm prices In the regulated market if shipments are restricted. However, production increases resulting from higher prices can subsequently reduce farm prices.
