Heavy Tobacco Harvest Drives Lancaster County Crop Report

The Pennsylvania Crop Reporting Service notes a strong week in Lancaster County with very large tobacco leaves and a late peak in cutting. Pasture and hay quality vary from average to good while corn ears bend and silos fill. Tomato ripening remains steady as fruit health stays favorable. apples and peaches harvest continues with good yields and minimal insect damage. An early frost risk remains low, though some concern exists for Potter County.
