Where are apricots primarily produced?

It's a fertile crescent situation. Also they're quite susceptible to locusts, so they're a biblical fruits. So the middle east PLUS the locusts. One wonders if the old testament characters had a lot to say about the fruit... And Wenatchee in the US, the hosts are unclear which Wenatchee, but we all live near the one in WA so the assumption is that it's that one, obviously.

I'm under pressure obviously because I'm way way behind schedule, and for all intents and purposes it's pretty clear this blog has been abandoned.

From 'al-barqook`, it comes from, means 'early ripening originally from ancient Greek.

Just like a rooster used to be called a 'roost-cock', 'abri-cock' has changed to 'apricot', inspired mostly by the french etymology.
