Peach Outlook for This Season in Georgia
Georgia faces a much larger peach crop this year, potentially over 10 000 cars, after a profitable 1930 season. Producers are urged to thin for size and quality as markets dislike small peaches, with trade reports noting small fruit fetches lower prices and mixing sizes harms returns. Strong growers should focus on supplying consumers with large, well sized fruit amid rising regional production.
