USDA releases final rule on SNAP stock requirements
This rule applies to food establishments whose inventory includes less than 50% of the aforementioned staple food items. This means that the vast majority of farmers markets won’t be affected by this rule change. USDA clarified that “The changes noted above will not impact farmer’s markets, direct-marketing farmers, military commissaries, and other relevant establishments as described in Sec. 4002 of the Act.”
More on the rule can be viewed on the USDA FNS website.
