Fruit crop failure predicted in Kazakhstan

You can't count on a good harvest of apples this year. This was told by the gardeners of the Turkestan region (Kazakhstan). Due to the harsh winter, apricots and apple trees froze. A strong wind in the spring broke the branches and showered the buds. The frosts that returned to the region the day before “finished off” the trees, APK Novosti reports.
