Fruit crop (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

prune

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'fruit' is the first definition.
(prune is a kind of fruit)

'crop' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for prune that I've seen before include "Cut back the dried plum" , "Shrivelled fruit" , "A fruit; to cut back" , "Trim - dried fruit" , "Dull person" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Globe and Mail.
