Fruit obtained from eco-friendly measures (not universal) (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

greengages

'fruit' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'eco-friendly measures not universal' is the wordplay.
'eco-friendly' becomes 'green' (green can mean good for the environment).
'measures' becomes 'gauges' (gauge can mean to measure).
'not' is a deletion indicator.
'universal' becomes 'u'.
'gauges' with 'u' removed is 'gages'.
'green'+'gages'='GREENGAGES'

'obtained from' is the link.

(Another definition for greengages that I've seen is " fruit".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
