| E6-16256 | United States Standards for Grades of Bunched Italian Sprouting Broccoli | Notice | The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is revising the voluntary United States Standards for Grades of Bunched Italian Sprouting Broccoli. AMS is revising the standards to include provisions for certifying and grading broccoli crowns and florets. Specific size requirements for broccoli crowns and florets are being established. Additionally, the size requirements for the U.S. Fancy grade are being revised to provide minimum and maximum lengths for broccoli bunches "unless otherwise specified." AMS is also revising the size specification section to allow percentages to be determined "by weight," as well as "by count," when fairly uniform in size. AMS is adding a definition for fairly uniform and definitions for the terms florets and crowns and revising the definition for diameter. AMS is defining and adding "same type" to the requirements for each of the grades. AMS is eliminating the unclassified category. Additionally, AMS is revising the title of the standards to United States Standards for Grades of Italian Sprouting Broccoli as the standards will now apply to multiple forms of broccoli. These changes are made to update the broccoli grade standards and better reflect current marketing practices. | 2006-10-03 | 2006 | 10 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2006/10/03/E6-16256/united-states-standards-for-grades-of-bunched-italian-sprouting-broccoli | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2006-10-03/pdf/E6-16256.pdf | Agriculture Department; Agricultural Marketing Service | 12,9 | The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is revising the voluntary United States Standards for Grades of Bunched Italian Sprouting Broccoli.
