Pretty much nothing pencils for almond farms in good water districts right now.

Have to plant from scratch if you want to see a penny

The difference between owning a farm and any commercial real estate:

Crop Insurance

The government isn’t coming to help you if you can’t rent your space.

It will help if you have a bad crop one year. That’s the difference between staying in business and going out of business.

Thinking of pre-selling the 2026 crop at current prices.

Can’t go wrong at selling nonpareil at $3.05

I can’t remember a time where all the estimates were in the same ballpark of each other

[AgLandGuy @CAagland]

Can’t do a good deal in a bad water district.

No matter how low the price, you’ll always lose

[AgLandGuy @CAagland]

With prices high, you’ll be lucky to find 20 acres for sale of almonds in a strong water district

[AgLandGuy @CAagland]

Sold Nonpareil Inshell at $3.05

Feels good to sell nuts with a 3 as the first digit

[AgLandGuy @CAagland]

High Commodity Prices leads to higher land prices

That’s exactly what’s happened in the pistachio industry the last few months

[AgLandGuy @CAagland]

The turnaround of the almond market cannot be understated.

We went from 0.95 cents for B/P to $2.65

Plant during the bad price times to reap during the good price times

The biggest problem with Kerman pistachios is how alternately bearing they are.

On year: 7,000 pounds per acre

Off year: 500 pounds per acre

LandIQ for almonds comes out in an hour. Curious to see the number of removals.

[AgLandGuy @CAagland]

Everyone needs someone that believes in them.
