M. C. Geuther, University of Illinois College of Agriculture marketing specialist, believes the new trends in packaging, freeZ' ing and other modern processing will continue. Growers who don't get in step may lose their mar. kets. A slow walk through a supermarket will tell why. Contrast the attractiveness of the food displays with the wide assortment of baskets, lugs and boxes in which some growers sell fruit and vegetables. Geuther says some growers are selling to . packagers, and others are packaging their own products. Still others are meeting the competition by developing their own retail outlets, such as roadside stands. But far too many have refused to make any changes. Marketing is becoming more complicated, he says, and growers and others will have to give it serious study before any satisfactory program can be developed. Here are some of the changes that are taking place: 1. Mrs. Consumer is buying fruits and vegetables in smaller lots, rather than in bushel baskets, and is canning less than She used to. 2. The list of packaged products is growing. 3. Neat, attractive packages sell themselves better than fruit and vegetables in bins and baskets. 4. Marketing developments have enabled growers from other sections to compete more strongly than formerly. 4 5. Consumption of frozen fruits and vegetables per person is now 8 to 12 times as large as it was in 1939. Intolerance, ii people write about l^Hl tlwn to .practice.. Plant roses early and well.
