Utah apples do not have apple maggots, says Edison Stephens, deputy Utah Commissioner of Agriculture. Stephens said that Utah apples are once again begin shipped and marketed, thanks to the efforts of Utah Commissioner of Agriculture Miles "Cap" Ferry.

"We think they are better be cause the skins are not as tough."; The Utah Legislature gave its' support to the fruit industry by! appropriating $125,000 for regula-- ; tory work on the apple maggot.-Thi- s money will be used to identk' fy and regulate the problem, Ste--: phens reported. Paul Daniels, director of plant industry for the Utah Department: of Agriculture, explained .that; using traps to collect and identify the insect, then using control measures, should solve the.protK lem in three to five years. Daniels pointed out that the legislature also supported 165,000: for research on the apple maggot," an important dimension to the success of the control program order applies also to Oregon, Washington and Utah.

The Utah apple industry has been suffering under an emergency order from Idaho which restricted movement of Utah apples. "Utah consumers familiar with the high quality of Utah's apples were surprised when Utah apples were not readily available," Ferry said. He indicated that through the cooperation of Utah and Idaho, an understanding has been reached and an acceptable resolution found. 29,000 tons, which brought in revenues of nearly $9 million to the Utah economy, a $2 million in- crease over the previous year.
