Canadian Apple Crop Falls Below General Average
Canada sees a mixed apple harvest with British Columbia housing most of the crop and Okanagan estimates up 35 percent from 1927 to 4,378,970 boxes. Ontario and Quebec report below average, with fair quality due to scab and insect issues. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia show declines but size remains large and colors improve. England reports fair to good Coxs Orange Pippins and Blenheim Orange, with overall average to small crops and varied quality across varieties.
