A3B-Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 31,2003 Vegetable Growers Favor Program Continuation HARRISBURG (Dauphin Co.) Secretary of Agriculture Dennis C Wolff announced that Pennsylva nia’s vegetable growers voted to continue the state’s Vegetable Mar keting and Research Program for another five years during a review referendum in March. Voters dis played a strong vote of confidence, favoring the program’s continuation by more than a 3-to-l margin. “This outcome is a very positive endorsement of the Common wealth’s Vegetable Marketing and Research Program,” Wolff said. “The Department of Agriculture wishes to congratulate the program members and is proud to continue its support of the group’s strategic efforts to fund research as well as to promote the high-quality produce that is grown so abundantly here in the state.” An impartial teller committee met to count the ballots on April 10, 2003. Of 1,426 ballots mailed to pro gram participants, 533 were re turned and deemed eligible to be counted. Thirty additional ballots were returned but were considered invalid because they were unsigned, illegible or postmarked after the for mal voting deadline. Of the 533 eli gible votes, 418, or 78.4 percent, fa vored a continuation of the program. A simple majority was re quired to vote in favor of the pro- Lancaster Farming's Classified Ads Get Results! gram in order for it to continue an other five years. The Pennsylvania Vegetable Mar keting and Research Program was founded in 1988 under terms of the state’s Agricultural Commodities Marketing Act, also known as ACMA. The Act requires the grow ers to approve the continuation of the program every five years. In 1993, 60 percent of the growers voted to continue the program while in 1998 the percentage of “Yes” votes increased to 66 percent. This year, 78 percent of those voting cast ballots favoring continuation of the program. More than 1,400 growers partici pate and benefit from the program’s research and marketing activities designed to support Pennsylvania grown vegetables.
