Tasmania's apple crop is up about 20 per cent on last year.With the last fruit being picked this week, almost all growers are reporting an increase in yields. Australian Fruit Marketers managing director David Adams says its a return to a normal year after frost cut volumes last season."Obviously there are a few issues out there with lack of water and that hot, dry spell that we did have certainly does have some affect on the crop of fruit that you end up with."But it's not looking so bad and I think generally speaking growers are reasonably happy with the way the season's panned out so far."
