True or False: Produce imported into California must comply with both basic marking requirements of IRQ and meet size/container requirements.

The statement that produce imported into California must comply with both basic marking requirements of IRQ and meet size/container requirements is misleading. While it is true that imported produce must meet specific regulations, the two sets of requirements—IRQ marking and size/container specifications—are not necessarily both mandatory for all produce types.

The IRQ (Inspection and Quality Regulations) emphasizes the need for proper labeling and information on imported produce, ensuring that consumers and regulatory agencies can easily identify the origin, handling, and quality of the produce. However, not all produce imported into California is subject to strict size or container requirements; these specifications may vary based on the type of produce, market needs, and specific regulations governing different categories of agricultural products.

Therefore, since it is not universally required for all imported produce to meet both markup and size/container requirements simultaneously, the answer is that the statement is false.
