It won't be long before you think that is a bargain. The pecan crop didn't
come in this year in our area (a big pecan producer). The trees don't bear
well every year and often do this in cycles. They are paying top dollar for
unshelled pecans at the wholesale distributers here. That means at least 89
cents per pound which is almost double what it usually is. Everyone with a
tree in their yard takes them in after they get what they want and makes extra
cash. This year, eveyone I know is keeping it all except, of course, the
commercial producers who are in the same boat with the trees.
Enjoy those pecans!
