Short Season Apple Harvest Hurried by Weather Elsewhere
A 1937 apple season in the four state belt is likely to be one of the shortest on record due to repeated rains and a severe drought last summer. Maturity runs late and farmers delay picking as selling prices stay weak. Rainy spells and natural forces push Yorks, Winesaps, Rome Beauty, and Staymans toward earlier harvests. Estimated storage losses from the drop are uncertain but expected to be substantial. A veteran grower notes Yorks dropping wholesale quantities.
