Yummy Fruit Co is battling on in the face of hectares of broken apple trees and tonnes of silt. CEO Paul Paynter says some areas of Hawkes Bay are getting back to normal while others are hardly changed from February when they were hit by two cyclones. Yummy has 500 hectares of orchards and 120,000 of trees in the Pakowhai Esk Valley and Meeanee areas that look as wrecked as they were in February … Paul Paynter says growers are hoping for great export returns to help get out of the hole they find themselves in through no fault of their own.
