The Industrial Concord Market from a Broker's Point of View

(This is the text of a talk given by by Mr. Herb Barber a long time member of the US Concord grape juice industry to the Washington State Grape Society, a grape grower organization. I asked Mr. Barber for permission to make this paper available because it presents valuable data on processing costs and market realities which are not available elsewhere. His presentation indicates that eastern produced Concord grape concentrate is unique and, under current market realities, has greater value than generic Concord or Concord-type concentrate.)

Dealing with winter cold

Assessing cold injury to buds

Cold injury of grape canes and trunks

Anatomy of Grapevine Winter Cold Injury and Recovery - In depth article by Martin Goffinet of the Hort Sciences Department. This excellent article gives an in-depth review of grapevine bud and trunk anatomy.

Managing Cold Inured Vineyards I - What we learned in 2003 - 2003 produced an average of 80% bud injury to Geneva vinifera. This is an extension presentation that summarizes our approach and results

Managing Cold Injured Vineyards II - OH NO 2003/2004 was even worse! - This lists thoughts about the need for trunk renewal and methods used to determine how much crop is present in lightly pruned cold injure vineyards.

Japan Fruit Growing an Example for New York Grape Growers
