§ 1430.22. Grapefruit, Maturity Sample Size.
The ratio of soluble solids to acid in the juice shall be determined by the analysis of a random sample consisting of not less than 18 fruits from each size.
When grapefruit is segregated by size as provided in Section 1430.26, each size shall be considered as a separate lot.
When grapefruit is not segregated by size the fruits of any one size shall be considered as a separate lot.
If the soluble solids to acid ratio test of the first sample selected fails to meet the maturity standard, but is not more than 0.4 below the required ratio, two more samples shall be analyzed. An enforcing officer may select and analyze more than three samples, but the average of the results of all of the tests taken shall determine whether that lot meets the maturity requirement.
