handle is hein.gao/gaobabcdj0001 and id is 1 raw text is: RELEASED BY THE U. GEL Report To The House Of Repi Analysis.Of Certain Aspects Of The California-Arizona Navel Orange Marketing Order Marketing of Califomia-Arizona navel oranges is controlled by a Federal marketing order ini- tiated by an industry committee and approved and administered by the Department of Agri- culture. Of the 1980-81 record-breaking crop, about 57 percent is expected to reach the fresh domestic market. The remainder will be ex- ported or processed into juice or cattle feed. Among other things, GAO found that: --The committee's composition, which only assures adequate consideration of industry interests, is consistent with Fed- eral regulations and does not violate Fed- eral conflictof-interest laws. --No evidence exists that 1980-81 navel oranges have been destroyed. --Terminating the marketing order would probably lower prices in the short run, but long-range implications are unknown.
