  • New Export Opportunities for Almond Hulls

    As California almond production continues to increase, so does the amount of coproducts such as hulls and shells.  Traditionally, much of these coproducts have been sold to California dairies as cattle feed and bedding amendments; however, the increase in production has led the industry to pursue further marketing opportunities and uses for these coproducts.  Watch this brief interview with Elaine Trevino from the Almond Alliance of California as she shares some exciting news regarding export opportunities and read more about it in Pacific Nut Producer Magazine.

  • Supporting Candidates that Support the Almond Industry

    Dear Industry Partner:

    Agriculture, water, trade and pest management policy decisions directly impacting the California almond industry are decided every day in Sacramento and Washington, D.C. Our industry continues to be in the national spotlight as elected officials debate issues regarding retaliatory tariffs, water, pest management and labor. In this unprecedented political climate, it is essential that the almond industry advocate for our legislative and regulatory priorities. We have worked hard to successfully build the Almond PAC to support candidates who value the almond industry and take the time to understand it.

    I am writing to you today asking you to join hundreds of your colleagues statewide who actively participate in the Almond PAC. By contributing to the Almond PAC, you help support candidates who care about agriculture and are concerned about the future of the California almond industry.

    There are numerous policy and legislative decisions that negatively impact California agriculture. The Almond PAC raises donations to support champions who continue speaking out about these issues and how they negatively impact the California almond industry. We must educate and fight back!

    Contributions must be made by check and made payable to California Almond Industry PAC. Please be advised a remittance form (Click Here) must be completed in its entirety and accompany each contribution. Political contributions are not tax deductible.

    Thank you in advance for your support. If you have any questions pertaining to the Almond Industry PAC, please contact Annie Romero at (209) 300-7140 or aromero@almondalliance.org.

    Sincerely,
