USA: Assessment Rate Decreased for California Walnuts
A rule issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) implements a recommendation from the California Walnut Board to decrease the assessment rate for California walnuts handled under Marketing Order No. 984. This rule decreases the assessment rate for California walnuts handled under the Order from US$0.0125 per in-shell pound, the rate that was initially established for the 2023–2024 and subsequent marketing years, to US$0.011 per in-shell pound. The rule takes effect on February 29, 2024, and will remain in effect indefinitely unless modified, suspended or terminated.
