Stabenow, Peters Announce USDA Purchase of Michigan Apples

Press Release

"Michigan farmers are the best in the world! We are one of the most agriculturally diverse states and one of the nation's largest producers of apples. Because record-breaking crops and a significant surplus of apples is threatening to destabilize the market for farmers on orchards across Michigan, I urged the USDA to buy the apples they need from Michigan farmers. This will help our Michigan farmers and provide healthy, Michigan-grown apples to food programs across the country. That's a win-win."
