June Drop Reduces Apple Crop and Supplies Demand
The June drop has cut fruit sizes across varieties, causing heavy losses. Industry specialists call it more than a natural thinning. Orchard spraying costs and reduced profits push smaller growers to delay purchases of insecticides, barrels, baskets, and packing supplies, while large growers continue calendared spraying. Only 0.61 inch of rain has been recorded at Winchester Research Laboratory, worsening conditions.
