Hello Mosbah, I'm well aware and familiar with DPA but have never had to use it since all my apples are never picked until COMPLETLY mature. I believe 1-MCP is possibly the salvation of the apple industry. Every grower should be using it if fruit is to be held in non-CA longer than 6-8 weeks. No more soft mushy apples to ruin the industry reputation. I posted the e-mail to make growers aware of those people who get heavy publicityas these "experts" such as this EWG. BEWARE!! Remember what we older growers went thru with the Allar fiasco? Evan Milburn www.milburnorchards.com
