Report Supplied by PDA
With the beginning of the Red
Haven harvest late last week, a
genuine market is being
established in Pennsylvania. Red
Haven are expected to be plentiful
for the balance of this week and
most of next week with a few Sun

of the week. Growers, for the most
part, do not expect much lag time
between the two varieties due to
the hot weather of the past several
days.
Demand for this period has been
.fair to good and the market is
steady. Prices quoted are
wholesale, truckload, f.o.b. at the
orchard or packing house in
Adams, Franklin, York, Berks and
Snyder Counties.
