12.3 million tonnes of tomato crop expected in California
Last year was a record processing tomato crop in California, but this year harvest forecast is 7.6 per cent lower - 12.3 million tonnes, averaging 45.90 tons per acre.
The harvest also delayed for approximately 10-14 days due to the rainfall during winter and wet weather in the spring. There also was a bacterial speck in early-planted fields, but in August harvest was well underway.
The industry is paying close attention to the maturity of the crop - if too much is ready at the same time, it could cause delays at processing plants and gaps in production.
