  • Will Zambia become a top producer of macadamias?
  • Having lived in Zambia for the past 10 years, it has been encouraging to see the recent push towards macadamias. With world-wide statistics suggesting a continued and growing demand for this super food, we feel positive that Zambia could become a top producer of macadamias globally in the not-so-distant future!
  • Where are macadamia nut growers from?
  • With roots in the Mpumalanga Lowveld (which over the past 20 years has become one of the biggest macadamia nut producing regions in the world) and frequent visits to Kiepersol, we have also been fortunate enough to tap into a strong knowledge base and continue to receive input and support from some of the top growers in that area.
  • What is the best root stock for macadamias?
  • The most common variety grown in South Africa (70%), 695 has a superior root system and is the most commonly used root stock for other varieties. This variety has been highly recommended by Lowveld (S.A.) farmers, due to the hardiness of the tree. It is a good base to start from especially in an area relatively new to farming macadamia.
  • How long does it take for a macadamia tree to grow?
  • It is a good base to start from especially in an area relatively new to farming macadamia. Beaumont should start bearing fruit in 3-4 years after planting and produce 4 tonnes per Ha. ¡°nut in shell¡± after 8-10 years. First grade kernels greater than 95%.
