Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and that means plenty of turkey, dressing, and of course, pecan pie. Georgia is the nation's leading pecan producing state, so growers eagerly anticipate each harvest. The Monitor's Damon Jones takes us to one Middle Georgia farm to see how the crop turned out.

http://www.ntv.co.ke Farmers in Embu are warning there may be a shortage of macadamia nuts in the region early next year, owing to the purchase of nuts before their maturity by unscrupulous middlemen. A number of farmers in the region are selling their harvests to get their hands on quick cash and in the process losing out on much better prices that their produce would have fetched had they sold it when mature. Ntv's Alex Mwangi with more details.

Peanuts The peanut, or groundnut (Arachis hypogaea), is a species in the legume or "bean" family (Fabaceae). The peanut was probably first domesticated and cultivated in the valleys of Paraguay. It is an annual herbaceous plant growing 30 to 50 cm (1.0 to 1.6 ft) tall. The leaves are opposite, pinnate with four leaflets (two opposite pairs; no terminal leaflet), each leaflet 1 to 7 cm (⅜ to 2¾ in) long and 1 to 3 cm (⅜ to 1 inch) broad. The flowers are a typical peaflower in shape, 2 to 4 cm (0.8 to 1.6 in) (¾ to 1½ in) across, yellow with reddish veining. Hypogaea means "under the earth"; after pollination, the flower stalk elongates causing it to bend until the ovary touches the ground. Continued stalk growth then pushes the ovary underground where the mature fruit develops into a legume pod, the peanut -- a classical example of geocarpy. Pods are 3 to 7 cm (1.2 to 2.8 in) long, containing 1 to 4 seeds. Peanuts are known by many other local names such as earthnuts, ground nuts, goober peas, monkey nuts, pygmy nuts and pig nuts.Despite its name and appearance, the peanut is not a nut, but rather a legume. The domesticated peanut is an amphidiploid or allotetraploid, meaning that it has two sets of chromosomes from two different species, thought to be A. duranensis and A. ipaensis. These likely combined in the wild to form the tetraploid species A. monticola, which gave rise to the domesticated peanut. This domestication might have taken place in Paraguay or Bolivia, where the wildest strains grow today. Many pre-Columbian cultures, such as the Moche, depicted peanuts in their art. Archeologists have dated the oldest specimens to about 7,600 years, found in Peru.Cultivation spread as far as Mesoamerica, where the Spanish conquistadors found the tlalcacahuatl (Nahuatl = "peanut", whence Mexican Spanish, cacahuate and French, cacahuète) being offered for sale in the marketplace of Tenochtitlan (Mexico City). The plant was later spread worldwide by European traders. Although the peanut was mainly a garden crop for much of the colonial period of North America, it was mostly used as animal feed stock until the 1930s.In the United States, a US Department of Agriculture program (see below) to encourage agricultural production and human consumption of peanuts was instituted in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. George Washington Carver is well known for his participation in that program in which he developed hundreds of recipes for peanuts. Copyrights : MrZygy3

Every January through March our pine trees get shaken until they let their pine cones fall to the ground for us to collect by hand, put into trucks, and send off to a factory that processes them. The final product? Lovely white pine nuts that everyone adores for making pesto, fancying up a salad, and decorating the tops of pastries. This beautiful 13 ton machine functions using oil pressure to maneuver the pincer, which grabs the tree near the base. Then, when the pincer is securely clamping the tree, by applying gas the tree gets shaken. The tree must be shaken slowly at first and then be given a faster shake twice for five to ten seconds. Then that's enough. What doesn't fall from the tree is left without insisting further. For more information, visit us at: www.tenutasancarlo.com

Every wet season in the Western Amazon, Peru's castañeros (brazil nut concession holders and harvesters) gather the huge brazil nut fruits from the forest floor, crack them open to extract the nuts inside, and carry them out of the forest to market. It's physically hard, and there are dangers -- from wild animals to falling nuts. But owning a Brazil nut concession is also a responsibility: owners have to defend their forest from incursions by Brazil nut thieves or illegal loggers. Every Brazil nut you've ever eaten was gathered from the Amazon rainforest by a castañero -- and they want you to know more about their lives.

Comparison of raw vs. soaked nuts when not organic. Soaking is a method of making your nuts more digestible and I normally conduct this with organic nuts but they were unavailable so I bought conventional instead. To my surprise this is what I found....

Mowing the weeds one final time before harvest. We sprayed the weeds this year to help conserve water so they were already dead, but mowing with the flail mower helps chop the weeds up to prepare the ground for harvest. The surface of the soil needs to be smooth and flat in order to sweep and pick up the almonds off the ground.

Valley of the Mist is a working Bush Tucker farm set in 47 hectares of beautiful bush land forest. An orchard of 10 hectares has been established which is dedicated to growing an amazing variety of native fruits and nuts using low impact sustainable farming methods. Visitors can see how they work with nature to produce the amazing Davidson plum which must be seen to be believed - as the fruit grows in huge bunches from stems which form directly on the tree trunk itself!

Blossomtime in Santa Clara County is a San Jose Chamber of Commerce film made by Charles H. Bowen for the A.L. Castle Company in 1955. This film takes us on a tour of the various fruits and nuts that blossomed each year in the Valley of Heart's Delight, Santa Clara Valley, California. Originally silent, the film exists in several different versions, of which this is the longest. Introducing us to the "Prelude to Prosperity are two lovely ladies outside the Chamber of Commerce on San Carlos Street in Downtown San Jose. Then we tour the orchards. Almonds, Cherries, Pears, Prunes, and others are showcased. Time-lapse photography (extremely time consuming with the 16mm on which this was made) shows us the actual blossoming of each variety. The film ends with a panorama from the Southwestern end of the valley. A part of the Pioneers Film Archive, his film was generously donated by Richard and April Bowen. Music by Philip Glass.
