The official termination is now expected to take place in early July.
Robert Guenther with the Florida Tomato Exchange and the Florida Tomato Committee spoke with RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender on how the original agreement came to be, how it has impacted tomato producers, and what to expect moving forward.
