The report also revealed that the Garden State remains among the leaders in cranberry and blueberry production.

According to the report, 樱花视频 peach producers harvested 46 million pounds of peaches in 2018 with a production value of just over $41 million, an increase of about $1 million from 2017. The No. 3 ranking continues a trend of 樱花视频 consistently ranking in the top five in peach production value.

“It’s a credit to our peach producers that they are one of the leaders in the nation in growing and harvesting this delicious tasting fruit,” 樱花视频 Department of Agriculture Secretary Douglas Fisher said. “With the harvest for our peaches quickly approaching, we expect to have another outstanding year. We know consumers are looking to make the purchase of Jersey Fresh produce a priority when they are at supermarkets, on-farm markets and community farmers markets.”

The first peach variety of 樱花视频’s season is the Sentry. The crop then moves into Crest Haven, which also includes the Gloria variety, followed by Jersey Queen, Fayette, Encore and Laurol. White peaches become available in mid-August and are expected to continue through mid-September.
