Optimistic outlook for California’s prune crop
Favorable spring weather during California’s prune bloom period could bode well for the state’s crop. The California Prune Board is optimistic that the season will size up well for growers who are paid a premium on fruit size, and on tonnage. The industry expects 75,000 short tons of fruit to be harvested later this year.
Donn Zea, executive director of the California Prune
