    Uh, that was a very short video. So how does something go from $1.10/lb end up retailing for $25/lb? That's an enormously huge gap that someone needs to explain to us. Sounds to me like global price fixing. I'd appreciate it if you would drill down and do some further investigation into this mystery. It kind of reminds me about the story of butter. For man years, margarine came out as an alternative to the often vilified butter for its rich fatty content. Then lo and behold, butter turned out to actually be good for you. And then, of course, margarine studies all suggested this was crap. The results: butter prices soared overnight, never to dropdown again.

    People in my village were starting to get good money from their macadamia trees. But local cartel has colluded with Kenyan government officials and kicked out the Chinese who were buying a kilo at decent amount. Now we are back to selling at throwaway prices to MACADAMIA PEOPLE who turn around and export at 100x the price.

    If the tree thrives in tropical places such as Hawaii, Australia, and Latin America, then technically, it'd thrive in Indonesia, which has quite similar environmental traits, would it?

      It should
      But it looks like there are no demands in the country, that makes the nuts unattractive to cultivate
      And yes, macadamia nuts never get heard of anywhere in Indonesia

      Harold Flowers the most enjoyed nut comes on December 1st, therefore making it the most priceless. A nut in November is the cheapest because it is only for people who have failed, enjoying it while being dissatisfied with themselves at the same time, having *laid* down their arms. With the size of the “load” that comes on December 1st being largest in quantity, you get more *bang* for your buck.

    I grew up with several mac nut trees in my backyard and we never harvested off the tree. My grandma would rake them off the ground into a bucket. They are sooooooooooooo much work! There is an outter husk that needs to be removed and then a hard outter shell that also needs to be removed. I remember my great grandma spending hours a day dehusking and cracking to get only a few pounds.

    It's a matter of high status having expensive products. And it is more sustainable waiting to get the best quality life, than to rob your way into richness, trampling over others who rightfully deserve to be wealthy. Think twice before wishing for macadamia status to no longer be "the most expensive nut". If forced unsustainable agriculture is implemented to achieve that, what of an achievement is this?? Think twice

    I live in Australia where most of the country's macadamia nuts are grown. The Macadamia nuts grown on my neighbours farm get processed, roasted and salted or honey added. They are mostly sent to American restaurants with the end user around $100 per KG in USD. I find this hilarious considering I can get the same bags from the processing facility for only $27 AUD. The damand in Australia however is a lot lower than the demand overseas.
