Compromised season for cherries and apricots
France
Monday 14 April 2003
Tony Bongiovanni, Fructidor's country manager for France, informs us that in the night of April 6 to April 7, there were heavy frosts in the Vallée du Rhône from Valence to Monts du Lyonnais (where temperatures of less than 7°C were recorded), which compromises the season of cherries and apricots. As for the south of Valence, it is still too early to tell.
