🌳The 2026 California almond crop is shaping up. Our second almond forecasts are out. • State + county yields • Acres & production • Top drivers this season • Historical comparisons • How we compare to other industry estimates

High early heat could result in a smaller nut set for almonds, though some larger hulls are being found. Meanwhile, orchards enjoyed a good bloom and growers may expect to harvest as early as July. @BountifulAg CEO Megan Nunes spoke about these findings. pacificnutproducer.com/2026/05/12/hig…

California is heading into its fourth straight spring of strong water storage, with most of the state’s major reservoirs nearly full, despite one of the worst snowpacks in recorded history. State reservoirs are at 118% of the historical average for late April. Four consecutive years of strong storage is a remarkable streak for a state that has spent much of the 21st century going from one record-breaking drought to the next.

@Antifund 👋 we should chat

Anti Fund backs founders who make incumbents look procedural. Not because they move faster in the abstract. Because they redesign the product so the old institution is solving the wrong problem.

Great question Kam, it' our understanding that yes, any 'potentially abandoned acres' that are stressed could be included in both the bearing and total acres. Land IQ classifies bearing vs. non-bearing based on orchard age and presence, not productivity. The 47,588 removed acres reflect confirmed removals through March 31. Land IQ does summer ground truthing and will finalize everything in November, which may result in a small adjustment (typically ±1-3%)

@BountifulAg Are distressed orchards considered bearing acres?

Land IQ and ABC released the initial 2026 Standing Acreage for almonds. 🌳Here are the key takeaways: 1,385,870 acres of bearing almonds 47,588 acres of removed almonds This is a -1.09% decrease in bearing acres over 2025. And a -3.27% decrease in removed acres over 2025. This is the first time that bearing acreage has declined since tracking started in 2010.
