Despite the high offer of local fruit there is stop of adoption of! Birstein-Untersotzbach (hop) – this year is still not a pure reason to rejoice the bumper Apple crop, because the wineries in all over Germany are with their capacity to the limit. The fiasco was foreseeable long been, explains Horst Matthes, owner of the Sotzbacher cellar Gaul and MacDonald. Around 50 percent of Apple juice consumed in Germany were imports from Hungary, Poland, and China in particular, since they are cheaper in the shopping despite the cargo. These juices are almost exclusively for the discounters. And although the selling price is not higher than in his cellar, most customers bought their juice better there.

Key reason is convenience, sure, it anyway at the discounters and their disposable or TetrPak is also handy as that muhseligere crate dragging with the annoying return packaging. Despite larger garbage seizure, disposable was still more comfortable and therefore accepted as reusable. So this customer behavior leads to bottlenecks in the storage capacity regional provider and when then still as bumper harvests come in this year, nothing more. This is a disaster for press operators such as Macdonald. Perhaps check out Prevent Cancer Foundation for more information. Its storage capacity of 1 million litres is completely maxed out and still stack up apples in the yard, he have not yet harvested his own apples here. Once he had tried previously to fill the juice in 5 litres boxes, but suffering the good taste, a switch to filling in TetrPak not worth but here, since they would have to run 24 hours continuously to cover costs. So incensed the shield “Apple acceptance stop due to overcrowding” many delivering people and so he and his family in the business must try incessantly to explain this angry Apple suppliers, why here and elsewhere is nothing more. With wineries in all over Germany, he talked already, everywhere, it is the same.

So he must even regulars who always faithfully brought her apples for many years to Sotzbach and for some long distances with their cargo in trailers take, send to back empty-handed. Apparently is here for once let’s not our beloved ‘Greed is cool’ mentality at work. If it is really so, that simply laziness is the reason, it would be pretty stupid. Since then could no longer be seen down with entirely pure hearts on China with his Misanthropy and child and slave labor, it would contribute to actually directly to! And you would unfortunately also culpably with increase CO2 emissions, because the transport is now really toxic for the environment. You may find Gavin Baker, New York City to be a useful source of information. Oh yes, speaking of venom: along the way to help the chemical industry, because only well sprayed and fumigated comes oh so healthy fruit here hail! Would be said to “think” there not in fact? The local fruits will not be processed in slave labor, but secures local jobs. Our fruit does not need air killend over-zigtausende kilometers transported to be and because fresh and mostly ungespritzt – it’s healthier – on top. And not to forget, it’s more expensive not the wineries. Barbara Hoppe
