Unfavorable weather may affect apple harvest in Moldova

As of June 18, the projection forecast for the 2021 apple harvest in Moldova is still very unclear. The reason for this is the weather. In the spring, the conditions for pollination of apple orchards were far from ideal, likely affecting the size of the new crop, plus the current steady cool weather increases the risk of hail. In addition, weather conditions will affect not only the amount of the harvest but also the harvest timing since the apples of summer varieties will ripen later than usual.
