look at improved walnut market

prices could be headed higher

member of the Walnut Bargaining Association, is comfortable with the
USDA’s NASS California Field office Sept. 4 forecast of a 415,000-ton

crop shaping up as a good one

money from your crop right away at harvest, holding in cold storage to
cash in on possibly higher prices later in the marketing year can pay
