In 2016~2017, in the nuts and roasted seeds of China e-commerce sales rankings, the macadamia ranked the second only after walnuts.

In recent years, the demand for Macadamia is increasing, but the yield of Macadamia is low, so that the contradiction between supply and demand is outstanding. According to the statistical analysis of the Austrian Macadamia Society (AMS), the demand for nuts only as snack in the world is more than 500 thousand tons. To meet the market demand, the global Macadamia planting area needs to reach 5.5 million mu. However, according to the data published by the Yunnan Tropical Crop Science Institute, its global planting area was 3.93 million mu by the end of 2016 and the total kernel output was about 48 thousand tons.

At present, although China’s planting scale has reached the first in the world, but the output only accounts for 7% of the world's total, only ranking the fifth. Except for a small number of fruit trees, and some fruit trees having not yet entered the productive period, the management techniques and management measures of orchard are not in place are also the main factors affecting the yield. Therefore, a mature and suitable production system for Macadamia orchard integrated management is the key to the problem of achieving the high yield and adding value of Macadamia .

The 8th International Macadamia Symposium will discuss this issue from different aspects. In view of some key technical problems of increasing production and increasing income, such as the high efficient cultivation technology system of mountain planting, the comprehensive management of orchard, the pruning and shaping of fruit trees, the influence of light on the increase of income and the comprehensive prevention and cure of diseases and pests , the experts from home and abroad will make a good prescription for you.

Scientific orchard management is the key to achieving high quality, high yield, low consumption and high efficiency. Grasping the scientific method of orchard management through face-to-face learning and communication with experts at home and abroad, is undoubtedly an important way to increase the yield and quality, reduce the harm of disease and insect, and to increase the yield and increase of the Macadamia.
