The tiny (thumbnail size) fruit goes black and falls off. Last year all (of what was to be a bumbper cropp) all fell off. The tree is 26 year old and is a Kingston Pride. Before the drought it was fine and we have had normal wheather for the past two seasons.
Kind regards

The problem is everywhere Grahame, it's a fungal disease call Anthracnose which you can spray with Copper Oxychloride or Mancozeb Plus. You need to do this just as the flower is about to set and then weekly until the fruit is well established. I have it in my tree here in Mackay, so how are we going to spray such a large tree? I have no idea.

Thank you Wayne,
I can get most of the tree as it has been trimed over time and not that high.
The high fruit the fruit bat get anyway but there should be plenty lowe for me.
