📚 BackgroundA Pacific Northwest photo finish: Washington barely beats Oregon for the pear crown — and for fresh pears alone, Oregon actually comes out ahead in the same survey. Almost all American pears grow in these two states plus California.(USDA NASS Quick Stats)
Most: Washington (218,000 tons); least of this top group: California (135,500 tons).
Note: measured in tons (only 3 states publish). Only the top states are shown; ranks can shift between years. Only the top states are shown here — smaller producers (and states USDA doesn't publish) aren't listed.
