Virginians Report English Apple Market Slump and Shipments
Special to The Star from Washington April 8 reports say the British fruit trade faced disappointments this winter. Virginia growers, led by shippers in Edin, note limited boxed apple arrivals since January 1 and difficulties in achieving prices above 1.80 to 1.40 dollars for extra fancy Winesaps. Oregon Newtowns declined due to panthrac decay and bruising, while barrel sales offered better prices in January, prompting Virginia owners to liquidate York Imperials Staymans and Winesaps. The piece hints at unprecedented barrel exports and market shifts as of early spring.
