Over 99% of interstate shipments of Florida produce are by truck. Motor carriers do not magically know when there is a potential load they would find attractive. Rather, motor carriers and shipper/receivers must locate one another and negotiate terms, either directly or through an intermediary. This report will examine the methods used to arrange produce haulage and changes over the past two decades. This is EDIS document, FE540, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

In the early 1980s, owner-operators accounted for just over half of all interstate movements of Florida's produce/ornamentals (Beilock and Fletcher, 1983). During the past two decades, trucking deregulation and technological developments have favored larger carriers, which may have caused the importance of owner-operators to decline. In this report, we examine the extent to which owner-operators have been able to maintain their share of Florida's produce/ornamentals haulage and their dependence upon larger carriers to secure loads. his is EDIS document, FE543, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.
