Impact of Climate Change on US Apple Quality and Production Highlighted in New Study

Credited from: THEHILL

  • Many of America's major apple-producing regions are facing challenges due to climate change.
  • The study, published in Environmental Research Letters, identifies Yakima County, WA, as the most affected area, followed by Kent County, MI, and Wayne County, NY.
  • Researchers analyzed six climate metrics from 1979 to 2022, noting that shifts can alter flowering times and reduce fruit quality.
  • Despite certain negative impacts, some regions may benefit from fewer cold days, allowing for less cold-hardy apple varieties.
  • Adaptive measures such as netting and evaporative cooling are being employed by producers to combat adverse effects.
