Wisconsin forecasts record cranberry crop this year
Leo Sorensen of the Wisconsin Cranberry Growers Association says Wisconsin could exceed 1 million barrels of cranberries this year, with over 100 million pounds, if favorable weather continues. He cites late spring but above normal bloom set due to July warmth and notes 1978 production at 825,000 barrels amid heavy rain. Massachusetts led last year, followed by New Jersey, Washington and Oregon.
