Approximately 25-30 percent less fruit yield is expected this year in Hungary due to frost damages – the President of the Hungarian Fruit and Vegetable Interprofessional Organisation (FruitVeB) told MTI.
Ledó Ferenc told that because of spring frosts about 30-35 thousand hectares of orchards suffered damages. It is estimated that 250-300 thousand tons less fruits will be on the markets. Overall, about 800-900 thousand tons yield is expected this year. This amount is equivalent to the five-year average harvest. (MTI)
