The Pennsylvania Potato Research Program represents each producer who grows potatoes for the production for sale or marketing. Producers shall be responsible for payment of the proper assessment upon acreage on which they produce potatoes at ten dollars ($10.00) per planted acre. This research program is to provide funds to be used for potato marketing contracts of benefit to the Pennsylvania potato producer. The Secretary and the board may cooperate with any other state or federal agency or other organization to prepare, issue, administer and enforce plans deemed beneficial to the purpose of this program.
