§ 64. Mr. G. Jegerasked the Minister of Food whether he took into account, when fixing the growers' price of strawberries, the fact that the season is late; and if he will adjust the price drop periods accordingly.
§ Mr. StracheyGrowers' prices for strawberries have to be fixed according to the average date of the maturity of the crop before it is known whether the season will be late or early. I am satisfied that the prices fixed this year will give a reasonable return to the growers.
