Almonds Grown in California; Extension of Inedible Disposition Obligation Deadline
Key claim: California almond handlers now have until November 30 instead of September 30 each year to dispose of inedible almonds, and that later deadline is now permanent.
Abstract
(Rule · Agriculture Department, Agricultural Marketing Service) This final rule implements a recommendation from the Almond Board of California to extend the inedible disposition obligation deadline prescribed under the Federal marketing order for almonds grown in California from September 30 to November 30 indefinitely.
Why this matters
California almond handlers now have until November 30 instead of September 30 each year to dispose of inedible almonds, and that later deadline is now permanent.
