Citrus Cartel’s Bitter Harvest: Stabilization Plan Halted

In a shocking move, the national orange and grapefruit committees adjourned without selecting a national coordinator to direct the stabilization program for the citrus industry, leaving the fate of the beleaguered industry hanging in the balance. The clandestine meeting, held over two days, was shrouded in secrecy, with committee members refusing to discuss the proceedings or reveal any information about the stalled plan. According to insiders, the decision to hold off on naming a coordinator was a deliberate move, driven by a desire to play it safe and avoid any potential backlash.
