. Cranberries; : the national cranberry magazine. Cranberries. ^etter To rhe Editor (Pres. GoldKvorthy Discusses new 'ooling Plan of paying for cran- eries by Cranberry Products, Inc.) Editor's Note.) Here at Cranberry Products, Inc., ^e believe, the only honestj fair I ^ay to pay for cranberries is on a uality basis and we have taken the sad in developing a pooling system n 1963 to make this a reality. Vhile the rest of the cranberry in- ustry may be oppO'Sed to such a luality program now, we are sure Jiey will eventually follow such a [rogram before too long, as the rower with the quality fruit will emand it. He will want more for is high quality fruit than his neigh- bor is receiving for floaters that re not even good canning sitock. This year at the time of harvest we paid $ f. o. b. for cranberries packed in sugar bags, which we furnished. In most cases the growers shipped us the cran- beries as they harvetesd them, thus saving at least 10%-15% shrinkage by shipping at the time of harvest, or $ to $ per barrel. All our growers were paid in full in 1963 for their 1983 production shipped us. On cranberries sold on the fresh fruit market we paid the grower what was received for them less $.5$ a barrel to cover our operating cost. Thus, a grower with Searles, Howes, or McFarlins sold on the fresh fruit market and bringing $ to $ a barrel, received this for his cranberries less the packaging supplies and $.50 a bar- rel. The fresh berries are not pool- ed with the canning berries as we blieve it is not fair to pay the same price for pies and seconds as t h e finest Howes sold in retail stores.
