Tribunal upholds penalties for marketing carrots outside pricing agreement but rescinds license restrictions for other vegetables.
The appellant, a vegetable grower, appealed decisions of the Ontario Processing Vegetable Growers (OPVG) imposing monetary penalties and license restrictions for marketing cull carrots outside the negotiated pricing agreement.
The Tribunal found that the appellant and the processor failed to fulfill their obligations under the agreement by not grading the carrots and basing the price on processor recovery.
The Tribunal upheld the monetary penalty and license restrictions relating to carrots, but rescinded the penalties restricting the appellant's licenses for other processing vegetables, finding them unfair and inappropriate.
