Title: Processed Raspberry Promotion, Research, and Information Order
Abstract: The Processed Raspberry Promotion, Research, and Information Order (Order) would be implemented under the Commodity Promotion, Research, and

Information Act of 1996. The purpose of the new program would be to increase the consumption of processed raspberries in the United States. The proposed new

program will assist the processed raspberry industry to: (1) Develop and finance an effective and coordinated program to strengthen the position of the

processed raspberry industry; and (2) maintain, develop, and expand existing markets for processed raspberries. Over the last 15 years, total domestic

production of raspberries delivered to processors has increased modestly while imported raspberries have surged. It is the hope of the domestic processed

raspberry industry that a Research and Promotion Program will help balance the supply and demand, grow the market in the aggregate for all suppliers, and

increase the consumption of processed raspberries.
