The Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Marketing Service has issued a final rule for the 2024-2025 tart cherry crop. This rule sets the specific percentages of the harvest that can be sold in open commercial markets versus those that must be restricted.
Why it matters: This is a routine administrative action that happens annually for commodities under federal marketing orders. It does not create new laws or change long-term policy, but it directly dictates how much of this specific crop can move through standard commercial channels this year.
Who it affects
- Tart cherry growers in Michigan, New York, Pennsylvania, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wisconsin
The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Marketing Service published this final rule in the Federal Register; readers should consult the original document for specific tonnage figures and compliance dates.
