Book Description
Excerpt from Foreign Crops and Markets, Vol. 10: Issued Weekly by the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.; March 9, 1925 American growers Were told that the English apple crop grown during 1924 was the shortest in years. Added to this, the growing season was one of the most unfavorable in the history of the country. In the apple districts of Holland, Switzerland, Northern Italy, czecho-slovakia, Roumania and jugo-slavia, however, the crop was the heaviest and the best that they had ever had. The competition of the crop in these countries is not given adequate valuation by our American apple industry. It represents a tremendous volume and has certain lines that represent a much higher class commercial output than is seen in the English crop. Tyrolian shippers put a package on the market that is second only to Pacific Northwestern boxes. It reaches all European markets. In German and Scandinavian markets these apples are seen in much greater velame than are American apples.
