Bingo. If you wouldn't want it thrown on the floor of your living room, it's trash and it's littering.

" 577.070. 1. A person commits the crime of littering if he throws or places, or causes to be thrown or placed, any glass, glass bottles, wire, nails, tacks, hedge, cans, garbage, trash, refuse, or rubbish of any kind, nature or description on the right-of-way of any public road or state highway or on or in any of the waters in this state or on the banks of any stream, or on any land or water owned, operated or leased by the state, any board, department, agency or commission thereof or on any land or water owned, operated or leased by the federal government or on any private real property owned by another without his consent.

2. Littering is a class A misdemeanor. "

public road
state highway
state waters
state land
federal land

what about private property? chuck that apple far enough into somebody's yard, and it's not littering? what is it then?

Then people would eat apples for free, picking them off any old road they found them. Thereby shutting down apple orchards en'masse and causing ramptant destruction of our economy and a collapse of our food industry.

Personally, I think apple trees and other fruit bearing trees should be planted where peopel have "free access"
