What affects Walnuts prices
US walnut prices are driven by the size and quality of the annual crop, carry-in inventories, domestic use, and export demand. California produces virtually all US commercial walnuts, so orchard weather, irrigation water, pests, disease, and harvest conditions in the Central Valley are especially important. Walnuts can be stored for extended periods under appropriate conditions, allowing processors and handlers to market the crop across the year. Labor, water, processing, packaging, energy, and freight costs also influence the supply chain, while export sales can materially affect available domestic stocks.
California walnuts are harvested in the fall, generally from late summer through autumn, and the new crop enters processing and distribution after harvest. The market relies on shelled and in-shell inventories for much of the following year, rather than on continuous fresh harvests. Supplies are typically most directly shaped by the newly harvested crop during fall and early winter, then by stored inventory quality and remaining stocks later in the marketing year. Imports are generally a smaller part of US walnut availability than domestic California production, although trade flows can affect the overall balance.
