Abstract

"News" piece on a press release to Maine media outlets from U.S. senator Susan Collins, R-Maine, announcing the approval of a plan for the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to purchase surplus Maine blueberries from last year's harvest. But processors may be reluctant to let go of last season's frozen berries at the discounted government rate, because this season's crop is expected to fall far short of expectations. USDA-purchased blueberries go to public schools, prisons, military installations and other government programs throughout the country.
