Local Concern May Cold Pack Strawberries
The Pleasant Grove Canning company and H W Jacobs company consider cold packing strawberries this year. Early season prices from growers are too high, but surplus during peak harvest could steady the market and allow full crop marketing. Clifford Tomlinson visited Salt Lake City market as berries sold to 40 cents per case. Pack costs outpace prices and farmers gain little. Growers and packers should collaborate on a profitable plan.
