Overview

Excerpt from Foreign News on Apples, Vol. 375: August 5, 1931 Owing to adverse conditions of every description, Continental Europe produced one of, the smallest apple and pear crops on record. The English crop, although considered good, was far from being large enough to supply local demand. In full cr0p years the English crop is able to supply but about 50 per cent of the requirements of this country. Furthermore, owing to the location of the industry, a large part of the crop is disposed of in the South of England and does not reach out and supply those markets to the North to which a large part of the American crop is consigned. The English cr0p was not long in going into consumption. Dessert varieties, such as Worcester Pearmain and Cox's Orange Pippin, were well out of the way by the first of November. Cooking apples, which were Of rather inferior quality, were more plentiful. These were on the market until after the first of'the year, but were also successfully cleared owing to the unusual continental demand. Large quantities were exported to Holland. English producers looked upon this as a great triumph and, as a result, have increased acreage in certain instances. France, Switzerland and The Netherlands, which ordinarily have an exportable surplus, experienced almost complete crop failures. Producing areas were without sufficient supplies to satisfy even local needs, to say nothing of supplying large consuming centers with their wants. Of all the European countries, Sweden, Austria and Yugoslavia were the only ones having good crops and, owing to the tonnage produced and the location of the industries, competition was not very keen from these sources.
