Sometimes You Feel Like a Nut An Insider's Look at the California Almond Belt

Agriculture is a world of endless trade disputes, massive government intervention, and farmers dumping manure on capitol steps to protest their situation. But in the Central Valley of California, a very different story is unfolding. Over the past ten years, California's almond growers have doubled their production, building their markets in every corner of the globe. These entrepreneurs receive no subsidies, have no protection against imports, and make money at what they do. Sometimes You Feel Like A Nut tells their story, through the eyes of a grower who bought an orchard and learned as he went.Smith, David O. is the author of 'Sometimes You Feel Like a Nut An Insider's Look at the California Almond Belt', published 2005 under ISBN 9781413480535 and ISBN 1413480535.
