—UncMtcr Farming, Saturday, July 7,1979 26 Pennsylvania reports one of best cherry crops GETTYSBURG The National Red Cherry Institute, which met here recently, reports that the national red tart cherry crop is at one of its lowest points in recent years, while sweet cherry production is record-high. Penn sylvania did well on both counts. The U.S. sweet cherry total is-pegged at 180,450 tons, four per cent above the last big crop, in 1976. Penn sylvania production stands at 750 tons, which is equal to last year’s production and over 100 tons above the 1974-78 average. The red tart cherry crop estimate shows the U.S. total at 167.2 million pounds, compared to over 181 million pounds last year and just under 214 million pounds in 1977. Penn sylvania’s production held up well, however, at 9 million pounds, the highest since 1975. The figures were compiled and released by the United States Department of Agriculture.
