Washington apple crop availability greater than expected
There’s a lot of work ahead for the Washington apple industry as storage levels are quite a bit higher than initially anticipated. “While last year’s crop is significantly down in volume, packout rates were higher than expected, and inflation slowed velocity,” says Dan Davis with Starr Ranch Growers. Due to rising prices, people are forced to be more selective in their purchasing.
