ISHS Acta Horticulturae 470: II International Symposium on Pistachios and Almonds

THE CALIFORNIA PISTACHIO INDUSTRY

Author:   L. Ferguson
Abstract:
The goal of new plant introduction is to successfully establish a crop not previously grown in an area. Pistachios are a prime example of a recent success. They progressed from a crop of negligible value in 1976 to a value of 161.5 million dollars in 1993 (Table 1). How this was achieved is a model of public and private section cooperation in agricultural research and development.
