Market forecaster: The price of pecans is high when pecans are comparatively scarce but drops sharply when pecans are abundant  Thus, in high-yield years, growers often store part of their crop in refrigerated warehouses until after the next year' s harvest, hoping for higher prices then  Because of bad weather, this year' s pecan crop will be very small
Nevertheless, pecan prices this year will not be significantly higher than last year, since
pecan yields for some farmers were as high this year as they had been last year
