Frost in Niagara Fruit Belt Causes Little Apple Damage
Frost last week killed millions of farm plants but the Niagara County farm bureau reports apples suffered the least damage in the Niagara fruit belt. Experts say crop may be a touch late but apples should remain strong with Lake Ontario moderating the cold. Nationwide effects vary with cherries hit hardest in Niagara and mid Hudson growers worry pollination was reduced. Massachusetts sees heavier peach losses though apples fare better, and Bristol County uses tires for protection while federal aid remains unavailable.
