Abstract
Basically, when appraising potato marketing orders, the main issues center around economic and administrative questions. From an economic standpoint marketing orders have not increased farm income for potato producers, even when allied with potato price support programs. The administrative problems have been complex and difficult to carry out under rapidly changing conditions of production and demand. Marketing orders were made operative on the entire industry in the six states even though not more than 15 per cent of the producers participated in the referendum. Hearing records appear to indicate that the intention of Congress was to have enactment of the order when two-thirds of the growers affected in the area approved the order.
