Fruit and Vegetable Industry Advisory Committee

Since its inception in 2001, this Advisory Committee has met up to two times per year to develop recommendations for submission to the Secretary of Agriculture on issues affecting the U.S. produce industry. AMS officials ensure this Advisory Committee is administered according to the Federal Advisory Committee Act, and plan Advisory Committee meetings. Secretary Vilsack recently re-chartered this Advisory Committee for two more years with new members to be appointed. AMS is collecting nominations for membership from individuals and groups. Nominations are due by July 1, 2009. [Notice PDF] [Press Release]
