Cranberry growers want to destroy crops to prop up prices
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cranberry farmers have asked the federal government for permission to destroy a quarter of their crop in response to a glut that has kept prices low and growers operating in the red. Cranberry farmers have asked the federal government for permission to destroy a quarter of their crop in order to help raise prices.A glut of the crop has kept prices low, which in turn has left growers operating in the red.The Boston Globe says growers around the country have been struggling with an oversupply of the berries for nearly two decades, and now they're asking the U.S. Department of Agriculture for authorization to sell 75 percent of the supply and discard the rest.The USDA estimates the cost to produce a barrel of cranberries is $35, but the average price last year was $31.50.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
