Apple harvest in Rossum in full swing: “You have to take care of apples like you would a woman, they are vulnerable”

The reason why the apples of fruit farm Oold Bleank are flourishing compared to those of some colleagues is due to the weather, Schilderink explains. “We have had less rain here in Twente and we were also fine with night frost this year. Yes, I am very satisfied. But because of the wetness we have had more problems with mold. So we spray against that with chemical agents, we are not organic.”
