1Opinion of the Court
ARCHER, Senior Circuit Judge.
The United States appeals from the judgment of the Court of International Trade holding that 19 C.F.R. § 102.18(b) is arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, and otherwise contrary to law. Bestfoods v. United States, 110 F.Supp.2d 965 (Ct. Int’l Trade 2000). This regulation withholds de minimis treatment under the federal marking statute from most agricultural products. Concluding that 19 C.F.R. § 102.13(b) is a valid exercise of discretion by the United States Customs Service (“Customs”), we reverse.
