(Continued From Page 22)
Everyone involved in produce
marketing takes a chance that he
may not be paid for produce sold.
Helping him to get the payment
he deserves, to cut the risk, to
reduce unfair competition, and
speed delivery of these
perishables is a federal law - the
Perishable Agricultural Com
modities Act. This law is ad
ministered by the Fruit and
Vegetable Division* of the
Agricultural Marketing Service,
U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The PACA has set up a code of
ethical business practices for
those who market fresh and
frozen fruits and vegetables.
‘i ms Act provides a means for
preventing and settling the
disputes that inevitably arise in
this fast-moving, high-risk
business. PACA officials work
with both buyers and sellers in
mediating their disputes, helping
them arrive at informal
agreements so that any load of
produce in dispute can move into
marketing channels and on to
consumers promptly.
While the bulk of produce
disputes handled by AMS are
settled informally (945 in 1972
representing $2.2 million in
claims), some complaints must
be settled through a more formal
procedure. Last year USDA
issued 327 formal orders under
PACA, settling claims of more
than $1.2 million. The PACA
experts also gave producers
advice on their marketing
transaction in thousands of in
stances to minimize contract
disputes.
