Excerpt from The Almond in California
California produces over 98 per cent of the entire American crop and has done so for many years. During the period from 1900 to 1913 the number of bearing trees remained approximately the same, new plantings having replaced old orchards that were being pulled out. The variation in California production from year to year prior to 1915, as shown in figure 1, is due to seasonal variations rather than to change in acreage.
