Sustainability
is about ensuring that California almonds can be grown in a manner that provides
an economic return to the almond growers, protects the environment and sustains
the community.
The Almond Board of California has developed the following definition of sustainability:
"Sustainable almond farming utilizes production practices that are economically viable and are based upon scientific research, common sense and a respect for the environment, neighbors and employees. The result is a plentiful, healthy and safe food product. "
