The industry promotes almonds through ads and NASA partnerships, with California now the world’s top producer at 406 million shelled pounds, surpassing Spain and Italy. The center explores hull uses, grafting boosts, and nutrition data while noting California trees mature faster and have shorter lifespans than Old World varieties.
