Home Garden Pecans In Arkansas
Pecans, native to Arkansas, have a growing consumer audience worldwide. U.S. consumer demand for the nut has grown nearly 15 percent from 2018 to 2019, according the Pecan Report. Demand overseas rose about 12 percent during that same time. China is a major international consumer of the nut, but sales there were impacted by trade tariffs.
Growing pecans in the home landscape can be an enjoyable and rewarding garden activity, with the payoff a bountiful supply of nuts in autumn for eating and cooking.
