Nuts & Seeds: United States

Focus Reports, United States

Report Overview

This report provides annual forecasts to 2027 for US nuts and seeds demand and production in pounds, and demand in nominal US dollars at the grower, processor, or importer level. Total demand in pounds and dollars is segmented by product in terms of: peanuts; almonds; cashews; pistachios; pecans; walnuts; other nuts such as macadamias, hazelnuts, Brazil nuts, and pine nuts; sunflower seeds; and flaxseeds and sesame seeds.

To illustrate historical trends, total demand, total production, the various segments, and trade are provided in annual series from 2012 to 2022.

Nuts and seeds imported into the US as part of a trail mix are excluded from demand figures. For products not grown commercially in the US – including cashews, Brazil nuts, and pine nuts – demand is valued at import prices.

This report includes the results of a proprietary national online consumer survey of US adults (age 18+). This Freedonia Focus Reports National Online Consumer Survey has a sample size of approximately 1,500, screened for response quality, and representative of the US population on the demographic measures of age, gender, geographic region, race/ethnicity, household income, and the presence/absence of children in the household.

Key macroeconomic indicators are also provided with quantified trends. Other various topics, including profiles of pertinent leading companies, are covered in this report. A full outline of report items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
