Fruit and Grain Exchanges Come Late In Season
The French agreement to lift US apple and pear quotas by 22 000 tons in exchange for feeding wheat arrives late, unlikely to boost Eastern apple prices. Pippins and Winesaps may benefit, other varieties unsuited for export. About five million barrels stored March 1, down 2.5 million from February 1. Winchester plants hold 100 000 barrels. Exporters hope for similar France deals next season amid tighter markets and sharp sanitary rules.
