Due to this we are looking to slow down our sales from the seasonal pool to see if we can improve average pricing later in the season,” a US seller stated.  To stay up to date on developments in the almond markets, subscribe to the Mintec Weekly Almond Report by emailing [Nuts@Mintecglobal.com](mailto:Nuts@Mintecglobal.com).
