In addition, the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) proposed to make any such changes to the Order as may be necessary to conform to any amendment that may result from the hearing. | 2023-03-07 | 2023 | 3 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/03/07/2023-04428/walnuts-grown-in-california-secretarys-decision-and-referendum-order-on-proposed-amendments-to | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2023-03-07/pdf/2023-04428.pdf | Agriculture Department; Agricultural Marketing Service | 12,9 | This decision proposes amendments to Marketing Order No. 984 (Order), which regulates the handling of walnuts grown in California, and provides growers with the opportunity to vote in a referendum to determine if they favor the changes.
