The strength of many lends weight to individual members to help them find opportunities, settle disputes, and provide protection. Members have a place to turn when they have a concern or a problem to solve regarding the marketing of their prune crop. By belonging to the Prune Bargaining Association, members enhance price stability and improve their overall returns. Only PBA members participate in establishing the price standard. The PBA represents members' interests on issues at the state and federal levels.
Members also have an effective channel for input on industry issues and promotion programs.
The PBA publishes newsletters and special reports regarding crop, market, and industry trends. Participants in PBA's Worker Safety Group enjoy lower rates, enhanced dividend potential, and a long term lower net cost than most other insurance options.
