Abstract
Excerpt from the report preface: Pecan shelling and processing on a large-scale commercial basis is relatively new. Little information has been published concerning the industry--its size, location, and marketing practices and problems. Those who produce and market pecans long have been interested in the composition of the pecan-marketing complex and in how its efficiency might be improved. This study is part of a broad program of research aimed at improving market efficiency and expanding markets for farm products, including pecans.
