Researchers from The University of Queensland have identified two desirable traits in macadamia trees
to make orchards more productive and profitable.
The first trait involves reducing the height of mature trees from an average of 15 metres down to around five, said Dr Alam.
The second trait reduces the time before new plantings produce nuts from five to three years.

This nursery in Australia sells a Dwarf Macadamia. Reviews say the nuts are also fairly small.
