FruitVeB: cherry crop can fall below 10,000 tons

Due to the heavy rainfall, fewer than 10,000 tons of cherry can be produced in Hungary, so it can be more expensive than last year – the director of the FruitVeb Hungarian Vegetable and Fruit Intermediate Organization and Product Board told M1 news channel.

Hunyadi István added that at the time of flowering, it could be expected that the crop would not be as good as last year, but the rainy weather of the past weeks would lead to even more crop losses. (MTI)
