Abstract
The Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 directed and authorized the Secretary of Agriculture to carry out a number of programs which are importantly related to the food industry, not the least of which are the inspecting and grading of raw and processed foods, providing marketing information and assistance, and conducting research and development related to processed foods. The legislation, as amended, is presented as Chapter 38—Distribution and Marketing of Agricultural Products in Title 7 of the United States Code.
