Abstract
China is the world's largest market for pecans and imports more than a third of the U.S. pecan crop to meet its needs. Since 2008, pecan cultivation in China has been a rapidly growing industry. This paper summarizes the history of pecan importation and cultivation in China, the suitability of various cultivars for different regions, propagation techniques, major pests and diseases, pecan processing, and relevant research conducted in China. We also discuss current issues with pecan production in China and possible solutions to these challenges.
