Apples No Increase On Tap in Far West
Washington forecast points to a weak crop due to warm weather, 1968 frosts, and two years of heavy production. Lang estimates 1970 crops near 30 million bushels after 33.8 in 1969 and 21.4 in 1968, with some orchards down to 30 to 40 percent production. Hood River outlook is good for 1971 but not likely to match 1969 bumper. 1970 fresh sales around 1.3 million boxes and 10,000 to 12,000 tons processed, against 1.9 million boxes in 1969. Harvest in Hood River is mid-September.
