Market Outlook
“The trend of almond production in California has been upward due to increased plantings. Imports of almonds and competition of other nuts are factors which influence CA almond prices. Present acreage appears to be sufficient to fulfill market needs. Therefore, caution should be exercised in making new plantings.”
Guess the year?

How Do We Measure Demand?
• Demand is not simply a function of shipments, or even consumption. Demand is a consumer's willingness and desire to pay a price for a specific product
• For our purposes, the best way to look at demand is as a function of selling a certain volume at a certain price
• Therefore:
Demand = Shipments X Farm Price = Grower Revenue
Note: This is more accurately a reflection of trade demand

• Demand pulls us through short crop correction cycles • Past 10 years are evidence of strong demand growth
Rising Price Indicates Strong Demand

1. Equilibrium growth where supply, demand and pricing all gradually increase
2. One or more years of short crop 3. Market reacts (sometimes over-
reacts) and price goes up 4. Profit goes up 5. Growers invest in additional
planting 6. As crop rebounds price begins
to decline 7. Supply increases further as new
plantings mature 8. Ongoing demand growth
enables price to begin rising

Several significant econometric studies have been conducted on the Almond Industry in the past that have shown strong returns on grower investment:
• ROI Analysis, Department of Agricultural Economics, Crespi and Sexton - 2001
Objective: Evaluation of the economic impact of advertising and promotion spending in the US market
Results: Promoting almonds has returned growers a 7:1 ratio for every dollar spent
• ROI Analysis, Naval Postgraduate School, Gates – June 2004 Objective: Analyze links between marketing investments by ABC to Attitude, Awareness and
Usage measurements and eventually to almond shipping and pricing data. Results: The AAU factors of awareness, liking and health perceptions have a statistically
significant relationship to almond usage

The humble chickpea is having a heyday as demand for hummus sky rockets
• Background: Long a staple of Middle Eastern cuisine, hummus is earning a growing following among Americans seeking more-healthful snacks. The chickpea dip is low in fat and high in protein.
• Investment: Sabra who has increased revenue from $16 million to $800 million in just six years invests heavily in advertising, PR and innovation.
• Results: IRI Sales show "refrigerated flavored spreads"—a segment dominated by hummus—totaled $530 million at U.S. food retailers last year, up 11% from a year earlier and a 25% jump over 2010
• Return to grower: Growing demand for hummus has pushed up prices for chickpeas, spurring farmers in the heart of tobacco country to increase production. The average price that farmers received for chickpeas was 35 cents a pound last year, a 40% increase in the last 5 years.
Case Study: Hummus

Almond Grower ROA Target Range
• Almond Grower ROA Target Range1
– 10-20% Yearly Return on Assets (excluding asset appreciation) – Only 5-10% ROA after taxes, so reasonable – Supported by the expectations of other growers’ knowledge of
the risks associated with Almonds Orchards based on at least a 20-25 year life
1. Grower’s Perspective: As an independent California Almond Grower and Investor, my opinion of an acceptable (“fair and reasonable”) Almond Grower ROA is as follows.

Outlook for 2013-2017 • Optimism for Grower Returns for 2013-20171:
– 10-20% Grower ROAs are possible with projected almond supply and demand fundamentals, but costs are higher and “break-even” price per pound is higher
– Growers need to stay informed, aware, and involved to support our capable
Almond Handlers and they need to know their costs
– Growers should review monthly information and reports from the Almond Board, they should understand how the Almond Board staff/marketing committee programs operate to build the type of demand that contributes to higher prices levels which are needed to achieve adequate ROA
– Growers should research and study Almond Market Dynamics and apply principles to practice on a regular basis
– Supply Management is the new “Reserve” as long as demand is strong
1. Grower’s Perspective: As an independent California Almond Grower and Investor,
