Nut production

Nut production involves trees bearing hard-shelled fruits called nuts, which contain edible seeds. The process begins with the flowering of the tree, followed by pollination where pollen reaches the flowers to fertilize them. After fertilization, the flower develops into a fruit with a protective shell around the seed. Over time, the nut matures and ripens for harvest. Harvesting can be manual or mechanical, depending on the nut type. After collection, nuts are cleaned, dried, and sometimes processed further to improve quality and shelf life. This sustainable process provides valuable crops like almonds, walnuts, and cashews used for food, oil, and other products.
