Quantity and quality forecast for sweet cherry in Moldova worsens

Sweet cherry producers from the south of Moldova reported that the potential harvest in 2021 will be 20% lower than last year due to weak pollination.
The decrease in the yield of sweet cherry was predictable already in May when the trees in the cherry orchards dropped a lot of ovaries.
But due to the rains in late May and early June that caused cracking of the still green fruits, the forecast became worse and dropped by 20%.
