Cultivation for the pistachio exporters
Peak production is reached around 20 years. Trees are usually pruned to size to make the harvest easier. One male tree produces enough pollen for eight to 12 drupe-bearing females. Harvesting in the United States and in Greece is often accomplished using equipment to shake the drupes off the tree. After hulling and drying, pistachios are sorted according to open-mouth and closed-mouth shells. Sun-drying has been found to be the best method of drying, then they are roasted or processed by special machines to produce pistachio kernels.Pistachio trees are vulnerable to a wide variety of diseases. Among these is infection by the fungus Botryosphaeria, which causes panicle and shoot blight (i.e., kills flowers and young shoots), and can damage entire pistachio orchards.
In California, almost all female pistachio trees are the cultivar 'Kerman'. A scion from a mature female 'Kerman' is grafted onto a one-year-old rootstock. Male pistachios may be a different variety.
In 2013, the City Council of Avenal, California, proclaimed the city to be the Pistachio Capital of the World, reflecting the importance of the pistachio industry to the city's economy.
In Greece, the cultivated type of pistachios is different. It has an almost-white shell, a sweet taste, a red-green kernel and a little bit more closed-mouth shell than the 'Kerman' variety. Most of the production in Greece comes from the island of Aegina and the region of Thessaly-Almyros.
Bulk container shipments of pistachio kernels are prone to self-heating and spontaneous combustion because of their high fat and low water contents
