Almond Objective Forecast 900,000 bearing acres in 2016 Sample: 873 orchard blocks 2 trees per orchard block Sample represents the population Field Work: May 23 – June 23 Use 50+ Enumerators Random Path Method Sample of Nuts taken and sent to sizing
station Sizers measure kernel weight, length, width,
thickness and grade
Nuts being weighed at a sizing station
Samples are designed to take into account variety, location, and age of planting
Models are designed to produce a forecast of all almond production at the state level from the sample data
Models do not forecast production by variety. Separate models are run for Nonpareil since there are significant samples.
