Dollar Pound Exchange Boosts American Apple Growers
English currency exchange now around 5.24 dollars per pound boosts United States apples export profits. A barrel of top grade Stayman or York apples fetches higher domestic prices while English buyers pay more, creating a favorable market outlook for Shenandoah Valley growers and handlers.
American apple man gains about $1.50 a barrel from currency move
The $2 advantage on the exchange rate is partly offset by higher tariffs. Last year the British import tax on fruit was about $1.05 per barrel when English money was down. Now American money is down and the tax rises to about $1.50 per barrel, leaving a net gain of about $1.50.
