Georgia Apple Growers Push For Higher Prices And Pack Quality
The Georgia state apple-growers association notes average sales near one dollar per bushel for Georgia fruit, while western and New York apples fetch about 45 cents. The lesson is to avoid cheap varieties like Ben Davis, promote proper grading, packing, and boxing, and expand southern distribution with favorable rail rates. Truck growers also rise in importance, shipping tens of thousands of bushels of beans and tomatoes, sustaining trade until frost.
