Linxiang Macadamia Nuts

Linxiang Macadamia Nuts

　　Linxiang macadamia nuts are a specialty of Linxiang District, Lincang City, Yunnan Province.

　　In 2003, macadamia seedlings were introduced to the area and planted on over 50 acres. Over the years, the district has focused on building a “Forest Linxiang” and carefully developed the macadamia industry through a “company + base + farmer” model. What began as a small planting initiative has now spread like wildfire along the dry-hot river valleys of the Lancang River. The district now has 75,600 acres of standardized macadamia nut bases, making it another emerging green ecological industry—following walnuts and coffee—for adjusting the industrial structure and promoting the development of economic fruit crops.
