India, Sept. 23 -- Srinagar: Despite some respite in freight charges following the deployment of RTC trucks, Kashmir's apple growers continue to grapple with one of the toughest seasons in recent memory, as plummeting demand in outside markets overshadows the relief.
According to official figures, the valley harvested 20.64 lakh metric tonnes of apples in 2023-24, with a similar projection of 20.56 lakh metric tonnes for the ongoing 2024-25 season.
