DUNCANHEIM – As the preliminary harvest season for many crops across Duncanheim draws to a close, the Agricultural Division of the Dunkish Ministry of Home Affairs has begun to compile data reports on this year’s crop yields.

Some highlights of the harvest report include:

In Tuni Canton, the Appildechene, the nation’s single largest apple-growing region, estimated a bumper crop of around 1.28 million bushels of apples.

Conversely, the cabbage farming regions around T-anchayᚼo Lake reported a less-than-average crop yield, producing 12 million kilos of cabbage, down from last year’s more normal yield of 16 million kilos.

The first citrus harvest of the year has shown some ups and downs, with farmers in the Coastal Lowlands, especially nearer to the Eik River, reporting major crop losses due to a particularly severe storm last month, however, citrus farmers in the Pola Valley have reassuringly reported no significant damage.

The first grape harvests near the capital have proven decent, although vintners and viticulturists alike have expressed concern that this year’s red wines may be somewhat more bitter than normal.

And finally, of course, the report highlight everyone is surely concerned about: an experimental nut orchard in Deneganeytaba has reported that they are beginning to think that Pretanian Hazelnut Trees are simply “not very fond of the climate here”, as this is the fifth year in a row without a successful harvest, and also the fifth year in a row that half the trees have suddenly and irretrievably wilted in the summer monsoon. Ah, those poor nuts in Deneganeytaba.
