The Pacific Northwest is predicted to have a significant increase in hazelnut crop yield this fall, with the Hazelnut Marketing Board projecting a 30% rise to around 59,000 tons from 2019.

The results of the annual survey should be viewed as an approximation, not a guarantee. The Subjective Yield Survey was distributed in mid-July to hazelnut farmers. The survey called on growers to provide a projection on what the expected ...
