    • Food

Welcome to Edition Number 10 of the Clipper Podcast for nuts and dried fruit. Interesting times and interesting topics. For our readers and our listeners we are currently preparing stories on how to do business in a very special situation – from online marketing to distancing in post-harvest and of course the changing patterns of consumption. First –

the topic in our magazine which you can subscribe to at agropress.com  - and you can sponsor our podcast which is now heard by an audience of more than 12,00 people all over the world, very important in a time without trade shows. Thank you, greetings from let us talk about hazelnuts. Did you know that the US is a major hazelnut exporter to China – how much do you now about hazelnut production in the US anyway? If you don’t, no problem, because I talked to Troy Johnson who is an expert, a consultant and a trader who is helping us understand hazelnuts from Oregon.

In Turkey the industry is very fragmented with an estimated 410,000 hazelnut producers. Can you tell me a bit about the structure of the business in Oregon?

Whenever I hear the words US China and agriculture I think about trade embargos and tariffs – maybe I am wrong. How are hazelnuts from the US dealing with it?

To many people in the nut business this sounds surprising, the fact that selling inshell to China from the US is so important instead of getting higher margins through processing and selling locally.

Water seems to be a growing concern for nut producers all over the world. How is the situation for Oregon hazelnut producers?

But you are upbeat about the prospects for the future.

Thank you for listening, I hope you learned a lot about Oregon hazelnuts. There is more on Switzerland and talk soon!
