Apple crop outlook grim in upper Virginia Valley
Staunton Daily News reports apple growers expect this year's yield in Augusta and Albemarle counties to reach at most about 30 percent of normal. Bloom was heavy but fruit set poor, with bees unable to pollinate fully due to wet weather and later conditions. Varieties differ. Ben Davis and Gano show promise, Winesaps and Yorks poor, overall crop judged “spotted” and far below last year.
