Tropicals market trends and prices , as well as an increasing interest in 
large-scale organic marketing is reflected in the weekly produce industry 
newspaper "The Packer"  which should be available in your campus library/Ag 
library.  There are other sources of organic marketing as well, but I have 
limited contact with them.  One wholesaler up here in the mountains who 
handles a lot of organic produce is Mountain Food Products, 152 Haywood St.
Asheville, NC  (704) 255-7630.

Hi, Larry.
My name is Nancy Grudens Schuck and I received the following message from
you on SANET (seee below). I would try to contact Enrique Figueroa, Cornell
Ag Economist, whose masters student Sheila Underwood did an nice NE study
on organic label recognition. I am sure it is published by now. His e-mail
is [email-masked] and his phone is (607) 255-4580. Good luck. NGS
