Then you know why standards are needed. It's enough to call something Grade A • both buyer and seller must know exactly what Grade A means if they are to trade at a distance. And that's Just what USDA grade standards for food do: give definition and meaning to each of the terms - grade names * used to describe food quality. In fact, the stan dards set the requirements (for example color, shape, degree of maturity) that a food must meet to be labeled as a particular grade. The standards make it possible for wholesale traders in food producers, packers, processors, retailers - and consumers, to speak the same language - to know that they have the same idea of what U.S. Grade A means in describing eggs, for example. Establishing these stan dards, with the participation and help of members of the food industry and con sumers, is one of the major functions of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Marketing Service. AMS stan dardization specialists study a food product to determine its range of quality and where and how to draw the line between different levels of quality. Their study in cludes production, processing, and marketing of the product and consumer preferences and views.
