Description

The almond industry today, is a vastly different one than existed at the turn of the Millennium, and had grown slowly over a period of more than 100 years.

This book pays homage to those that had the vision, courage and persistence required to successfully establish a new industry and develop it by laying the foundation through trial and error, innovation, adoption and adaptation of overseas and local horticultural practices.

Commitment to, and investment in unknown varieties and methods takes a strength of character few of us today need to display as we share in the knowledge gained by our pioneering industry participants, including growers, processors and marketers as well as nurserymen and researchers.
