Peach production constitutes the major share of the fruit produced in Mesa County of Western Colorado, Amounting to three-quarters of to one million bushels in a normal season. 'Elberta' is the principle variety grown; and while it does exceedingly well locally, the newer, more highly colored varieties are favored in the market places. Evaluation of newer cultivars was undertaken at grower request, to determine those varieties best adapted to the local conditions, their season of maturity, and production capabilities. Such information enables sound recommendations to be made for new plantings.
