SUMMARY: Producers of agricultural products felt they were not being treated fairly by handlers with respect to the production, sale and marketing of their products. Accordingly the Maine Agricultural Marketing and Bargaining Act provides for the producers and handlers to negotiate in good faith with regard to the production, sale and marketing of the products involved. Any agricultural organization who feels it is qualified, may submit an application to the board for consideration to be qualified as a bargaining agent.
STATUTORY AUTHORITY: Title 13 §1956 sub-section 6
