mystery

I just finished doing the brush hogging in the fields on our property. There are many wild apple trees that have grown there over the years. The apple crop, wild and otherwise, has been sparse this year after last year's astounding production. The trees in our yard have a dozen apples on them, maybe. Same holds true with the wild apples except there are a few exceptions. I don't know if you can see them, but the tree below is full of wild apples, hundreds of them.


What's intriguing is that the tree in the first shot is about 30 feet away from the tree in the 2nd shot. What is it that makes one tree so productive, and the ones right next to it virtually barren? A mystery.
