Growers Plan To Move Crop At Martinsburg Meeting
Stanley M. Fulton Hancock and G William Gardenkerr Smithsburg attended a Martinsburg meeting of apple growers and processors. They expanded a 1943 industry committee to present views to OPA and WEA for the coming season. The group saw larger apple production but below 1942 yields, with shortages of packages labor and storage driving concern of wastage unless buyers purchase heavily. Canners urged safeguards to avoid holding high priced inventories postwar and to prevent market collapse. A joint growers carrier committee will draft recommendations to WFA and OPA outlining ceilings, purchase commitments, and price schedules for processed apples.
