What type of identification should be displayed on pre-packaged commodities?
All commodities must be marked with a statement declaring net contents. Net weight does not include the weight of the bag, wrapper, or container of any kind in which a commodity may be packaged. This is called the tare weight, which must be accounted for before the product is weighed Inspectors from the state and county periodically check the accuracy of these pre-packaged items.
