Apple yield estimates now smaller in 1936 forecast
The Agriculture Department trimmed the 1936 apple crop projection to 104,042,000 bushels, down about 14.4 percent from the September forecast, citing smaller fruit size in the South Atlantic and Western states and wind and moth damage. Weather in North Atlantic and North Central states improved prospects, while commercial fresh shipments reached roughly 65.5 million bushels, near an 1921 low and below 1935 levels. Leading states and regional notes are listed with revised totals.
