FMO 905 is administered by the Citrus Administrative Committee.
They have a certification program for small growers like me to ship citrus subsequent to an APHIS inspection and some other stuff.
Pretty good news. May change the business model a bit but YAY! MORE FORMS!!
AND INSPECTIONS!
Also, I've been on a complete bender buying vintage citrus crate labels from the 20's-60's when they were amazing pieces of art. I'll post some pics later this evening of some of the cooler ones.
Bump! Any updates? Currently in the middle of developing some land for almonds, used to be cattle grazing/pasture so there are certainly some eccentricities.
Yep. Had some clearing done, got a gate installed and a driveway permitted, debating on fencing options.
Regulation gets worse the further along you go. We're becoming a country defined by government departments, all operating independently under the guise of hundreds of thousands of indecipherable laws. We used to be a country of enterprising and ambitious people. I don't know when they tipping point was but something broke, bad. Its getting hard to do anything here where regulatory compliance with the Bureau of Agencies doesn't take up 1/2 your time.
