Dear Community,
I am working in Nepal for a nut research project. There are plenty of macadamia trees that grow well, however, in some communities, they dont seem to florish at all.
1. Problem: 3 years after plantation, the seedlings (from seeds) are all less than half a meter. I post some photos of different trees and am curious about your suggestion what could be advised to the farmers (there is no macadamia expert I know of in Nepal so far that has experienced the different conditions).
2. Question: why are some macadamia trees give small nuts, other nearly double size nuts? they all taste same.
3. Any ideas how to "get rid of" squirrls?
thank you very much, the farmers will appreciate your answers/suggestions.
Laila.
