Eastern apple growers plan drive to claim market share
Apple growers in the eastern states mount a campaign against California rivals. Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maryland, North Carolina and Pennsylvania join efforts to improve packing and quality. An Apple Exposition in New York next fall will showcase eastern commercial fruit. Washington, Oregon and Idaho are projected to supply a large share of winter apples, with Washington alone expected to yield about 23.99 million boxes and a $35.99 million value at $1.50 a box.
