Federal Plan Aims to Support Growers in 1949 Scheme
The plan proposes guaranteed advances by the Commonwealth to grower deliveries of apples and pears in Western Australia and Tasmania for 1949 with costs shared between state and central administrations. It calls for a ballot among growers, with a minimum 300 trees required to vote, and outlines compensation arrangements if outlets are scarce. The WA and Tasmanian boards would coordinate marketing, while state legislation would vest fruit ownership in a central body.
