A great video clip from the BBC website that looks at the market for apples and why prices for English apples have fallen by a fifth this year. Two of the major reasons are the cheaper imported apples into the UK from countries such as Chile and the falling demand for English apples overseas as recession takes hold - english apples are seen as a more luxury variety.

English producers have previously had their hand forced by supermarkets driving prices down and as a result more orchards in the UK are now independent growers who provide produce to the local market rather than national supermarkets.
