Pecans Spread North as New Variety Draws Experts
A 40 foot pecan tree near Brunswick Missouri attracted about 200 experts from across the country, serving as a showcase for a new patented pecan variety. The tree, possibly planted by a squirrel, bears a football shaped nut with a thin shell, high kernel-to-shell ratio, and strong productivity. Officials from Louisiana Missouri praised the discovery, noting its potential to expand commercial pecan production northward into several states.
