In recent years, the noncitrus fruit and nut industry has seen an increase in revenue, driven by high prices, despite significant challenges. Climatic disruptions, such as droughts and hurricanes, have impacted production and yields for many key crop segments, forcing farmers to adopt climate adaptation strategies, including improved irrigation systems and climate-resilient crop strains. Even though revenues have increased, high input costs for fertilizers, water and labor have squeezed profit as fruit and nut prices have failed to keep up. Over the current period, industry revenue is estimated to have increased at a CAGR of 0.6% to $34.4 billion despite an anticipated decline of 1.1% in 2025. Recent trade tensions, fueled by tariffs from key partners like China and Canada, have significantly impacted the noncitrus fruit and nut industry. These tariffs have made US products more expensive abroad, reducing their competitiveness and affecting export volumes. Additionally, higher import costs for essential materials, such as fertilizers and packaging, have increased production expenses for farmers. To navigate these challenges, some are diversifying into new markets, but the overall pressure on costs and exports remains a critical concern for the industry. Over the next few years, revenue for the industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 1.2% to $36.4 billion. Looking ahead, prices for noncitrus fruit and tree nuts are set to continue on their upward trend, driven by the same climate and global pressures that have persisted in recent years. The increasing adoption of precision agriculture promises to improve yields and reduce costs, offering a promising path to profitability. Additionally, a greater focus on sustainability and organic production aligns with consumer preferences, presenting new opportunities. This shift will be supported by rising disposable incomes, which will allow more consumers to prioritize and afford premium-priced, sustainable products. However, the industry will need to navigate ongoing climate and trade challenges to realize its full potential in the coming years.
