Meanwhile, latest reports
on frost damage in orchards
indicate a sweet cherry crop
of only 500 tons is anticipat
ed in the state this year, 61
percent less than last year.
The 1965 crop totaled 1,300
tons.
A two-million bushel peach
crop is expected, 28 percent
less than 1965 production that
totaled 2.800,000 bushels. Pears
apparently escaped serious
damage from the frost, and
production is estimated at
110,000 bushels, only 4 per
cent less than last year.
While most vegetable crops
were retarded by cold weath
er, June 1 production esti
mates are unchanged from
those a month earlier
RECORD WHEAT
Pennsylvania’s wheat yield
is expected to hit a record 36
bushels per acre this year.
The estimate, based on June
I conditions, is two bushels
higher than the previous rec
ord of 34 bushels per acre re
corded in 1965 If realized,
the yield will result in a crop
of approximately 14.6 million
bushels.
