A record English Braeburn apple crop has been championed as a major step forward in the fight to replace imports. The apple crop is set to reach 18,000 tonnes, up 220 per cent on last year, following a major increase in plantings in the last five years.
Small volumes of the fruit will be available in December but the season will kick off properly in January, when there will be an industry-wide secondary launch of the English apple season, with Braeburn joining Cameo, Jazz, Kanzi and Rubens on the shelves. |
|
Adrian Barlow, chief executive of English Apples & Pears, told freshinfo: “This is a terrific opportunity for import replacement. The quality looks like it will be very good. We were concerned with the droughts in east and north Kent from July to September, but some rain from September onwards has helped."
