Great year for Washington state apple crop

Many growers in the Northwest are very satisfied with their apple crops this year. Now, the industry will have be ready to find homes for nearly 140 million 40-pound boxes of apples out of Washington. Most apples are out of the orchards now and are being sorted and packed. Some will be put in storage, while others are being shipped right away to markets across the nation and around the world.

A hopeful sign for apple exports is the fact that India is back in the apple importing business with the lifting of tariffs. Apple growers and packers are very excited about India opening back up. So far, Washington’s packers have shipped about 200,000 boxes of apples to India since the trade tariffs were lifted in September.
