Scope and Content Note

Reports by the senior marketing representative record market prices for both shipped-in and homegrown produce. The reports describe the volume of trading done on a particular day, the opening and closing prices for each item, any sharp fluctuations in prices, and carlot receipts. For each report, the produce items are first divided into homegrown or shipped-in categories, then further subdivided into either fruit or vegetables, then arranged alphabetically.
