Pistachio & Kernels
IRAN: It is hard to make any precise prediction in regard to the pistachio new crop prices. But regarding the quality it is forecasted that quality will be much better than the year before. Further, based on our prediction Akbari and Ahmad Aghaee pistachios will be in higher quantity and Akbari and Fandoghi will experience lower quantity than the last year. http://www.irandriedfruit.com/iran-pistachio.php
USA: It’s definitely an off year for Arizona pistachios. Arizona pistachio growers their production would go down in 2011 — an off-year for the alternate bearing crop.

USA: US pistachio prices stable as shipments continue to improve. PRICES of US pistachios are steady, following a slight rebound in prices at the start of July.

ALMOND
IRAN: it is predicted that Mambra almond will be lower in quantity but higher in quality.

USA: Prospect of huge California almond crop fails to bring market down. Californian inventories of almonds are running out and the new crop is significantly delayed, while reasonable demand is still to be fulfilled in all the major buying regions. These factors combined with the Californian shippers' strong position after a good year of sales suggest a firm price trend may continue at least in the short term, despite the bumper crop expectations.
Raisin
IRAN: due to the sudden showers and bad weather of this year it is predicted that the crop of the some of the regions will be somewhat affected.

USA: again no two price system for raisin industry. California's Raisin Administrative Committee (RAC) has voted unanimously to establish 100% free tonnage for the state's Natural Seedless (NTS) raisin crop this year. It was agreed at the meeting there would be no reserve this year, so they will have 100% free tonnage and no ability to fund a two price system this year. It is a little early to know what the grower price will be for this year's crop.
USA: Shata Trading of New York is recalling Three Rivers Brand golden raisins because they contain undeclared sulphites. The recall was initiated after routine sampling by New York State department of agriculture and market food inspectors revealed the presence of sulphites in Three Rivers Brand golden raisins which were not declared on the label.
