Pennsylvania Tart and Sweet Cherry Crops Forecast Decline
The Pennsylvania Crop Reporting Service projects 1975 tart cherry output at 6,000 tons, eight percent below 1974’s 6,550 tons, with harvest set to begin around July 6 in the south central area and July 11 in Erie County. Nationally, tart cherries total 157,280 tons, up 19 percent from 1974, while sweet cherries in Pennsylvania are forecast at 750 tons, down six percent from 800 tons. Bloom trails 1974 by about 710 days, and early harvest is expected June 23 to July 1 in southern regions. Farm machinery listings follow, advertising auction items from Paul Z. Martin.
