Abstract
Interest in the species of Eastern Black Walnut (Juglans nigra L.) for commercial nut production continues to increase. During the past several years interested growers have intensified tree care and evaluated several varieties and selections. It is believed that we have arrived at an economically viable threshold for commercial nut production. While we are operating with a strong level of cautious enthusiasm we believe that we are witnessing the emergence of a new industry.
