Almond growers achieve court victory over USDA (and other news)

NaturalNews Insider Alert ( www.NaturalNews.com ) email newsletter
(Unsubscribe instructions at bottom)


Dear NaturalNews readers,

For the last two years, the USDA has forced U.S. almond growers to kill their almonds using chemical fumigation or pasteurization (cooking). This has destroyed the business of many California almond growers and gutted the U.S. raw almonds industry.

But now in a major victory over the USDA, courts have ruled that California almond growers may proceed with a lawsuit against the USDA in their attempt to halt mandatory fumigation and pasteurization regulations.
