Northwest Cherry Challenges Pt 2
Tuesday Apr 20th, 2021 With today’s Fruit Grower Report, I’m Bob Larson. Northwest cherries are in full bloom right now and are looking pretty good at this point, but recent winds and unseasonably cold nights have undoubtedly cut the crop outlook from what it had been.
Northwest Cherry Growers president BJ Thurlby says the weather has been a challenge, but they’ve got another ongoing threat …
THURLBY … “We think this crop, off of the top, is going to be down two to two-and-a-half million boxes from what is our number one issue in our industry right now which is called Little Cherry Disease. And, that’s kind of been going on the last four or five years, we’ve seen it grow and grow and grow. And, now we’re at the point where we’ve got all hands-on deck trying to figure out how we’re going to stop this.”

Northwest Cherry Challenges Pt 1
Monday Apr 19th, 2021 With today’s Fruit Grower Report, I’m Bob Larson. Like everyone else in the world this past year, including those in agriculture, Northwest cherry growers have seen their share of challenges, from COVID to a frosty spring and other weather-related issues.
Northwest Cherry Growers president BJ Thurlby says it’s not been easy …
THURLBY … “We’re about half way through bloom. We’ve got, what I consider to be a gorgeous bloom going, but we’ve had, in the last week, a lot of wind and wind doesn’t translate well to pollination because bees don’t like the wind any more than we do.”
