Georgia Peach Growers Plan Car Lot Reform
At the Georgia Peach Growers Association convention in Macon the plan to limit losses from unreliable fruit commission houses and to pool marketing aims to stabilize prices. A committee named a limited list of commission houses in major centers and pledged growers to ship only to designated firms, with later additions possible. Peach drop this year is about one third less than last year as reports from multiple counties noted.

Peach yield forecasts vary among Georgia growers
Growers diverge on expected car shipments from Georgia with estimates ranging up to 60 cars. Older orchards in the southern district face reduced productivity due to brown rot and a rest after two consecutive crops, while northern districts house more young trees. State Entomologist Scott notes a peach shortage but expects about half a crop. Bordeaux mixture spraying benefits trees, while neglect explains some failures. About 100 growers have signed shipping agreements, with hundreds more expected to join as the season nears. The consolidation meeting adjourned to June 1 to finalize commission house listings and marketing arrangements.
