Abstract

Excerpts from the report Introduction: Although tree nuts have been grown and consumed in the United States since colonial times, the production of almonds, filberts, pecans, and English or Persian walnuts on a commercial basis is a relatively new agricultural enterprise. Aided by favorable growing conditions and a ready market, the industry has expanded rapidly, and during the last 25 years total production has more than doubled. Since the early 1930's, the United States has produced more tree nuts than it imported. The rapid expansion of the tree nut industry has been marked by wide fluctuations in the quantities of the various kinds of nuts produced with resulting marketing problems for growers and grower organizations. This publication brings together the information available on the marketing of tree nuts in a form which should be useful to growers and marketers in assessing the prospects for the industry and the role which they will play in it.
