Request for Proposals for Pistachio Research

The California Pistachio Research Board (CPRB) is requesting proposals for pistachio research to be conducted beginning in March 2018. Proposals for all aspects of commercial pistachio production are invited but the CPRB is particularly interested in production research on the biology and control of insect pests and diseases, irrigation, weed control, alternate bearing, harvesting aids and bird repellents. The California pistachio crop is expected to increase significantly in the years ahead and research on harvest timing and optimization is needed. We are also requesting proposals for research on food safety and pistachio processing.
