There Is a Newer Version
of
the Rhode Island General Laws
2005 Rhode Island Code - § 21-20-5 — Rules as to grading, packing, and marking of farm products – False representations.
The director of environmental management is authorized and instructed to
promulgate reasonable rules and regulations relative to grading, marking,
labeling, packing, and branding of products of the farm. Any fruit or vegetable
offered or exposed for sale or distribution in a closed or open package so
packed that the faced or shown surface gives a false representation of the
contents of the package shall be construed to be misbranded under the terms of
this section. Products of the farm sold or offered for sale as graded, marked,
labeled, packed, or branded as conforming to those rules and regulations must
conform.
