Not less than 50 percent of the bunches in any container shall be compact and the remainder shall be fairly compact. Bunches shall not be excessively small, excepting that compact portions of bunches consisting of no less than five berries may be used to fill open spaces between whole bunches.
(2) Berries of the Concord, Worden, Champion and other varieties of similar size shall have a minimum diameter of not less than nine-sixteenths of an inch, measured through the widest portion of the cross section.
(3) In order to allow for variations incident to proper grading and handling, not more than a total of 10 percent, by weight, of the berries in any container may fail to meet the requirements of this grade, but not more than five percent shall be allowed for berries which are seriously damaged. Of this tolerance for serious damage, not more than one-fifth, or one percent, shall be allowed for berries affected by mold or decay, and not over two-fifths, or two percent, shall be allowed for dried berries or those affected by berry moth.
