1. Introduction
1.1 International Nut and Dried Fruit
Council Foundation
The International Nut and Dried Fruit Council Foun-
dation (INC) is the International source for information
on nuts and dried fruits for: Health, Nutrition, Food Safety,
Statistics, Government Standards and Government regu-
lations regarding trade barriers and trade quality stan-
dards.
The INC was founded in 1983 with the mission of provi-
ding new opportunities for increasing global consumption
of almonds, Amazonia (Brazil) nuts, cashews, hazelnuts,
macadamias, pecans, pine nuts, pistachios, walnuts,
peanuts, dates, dried apricots, dried figs, prunes, and
dried grapes, by:
• Providing a single source of annual statistical informa-
tion from producing and consuming countries.
• Ensuring that global quality standards and trading
terms are within the framework of existing national and
international governmental bodies and do not inhibit trade
within the industry.
• Promoting research and scientific studies.
• Promoting international cooperation by interacting with
public, private, national and international organizations
with common goals.
• Increasing goodwill and mutual understanding of the
nut and dried fruit industries by promoting international
meetings in producing and consuming countries.

Amazonia (Brazil) Nuts
Production
Global production of Amazonia (Brazil) nuts in 2011 is estimated at 2011 ESTIMATED BRAZIL NUT PRODUCTION KERNEL BASIS / METRIC TONS
23,995 metric tons, a 9 percent decrease from the previous year, of
which Bolivia accounts for 76 percent of total production, followed
by Brazil with 8 percent and Peru with 7 percent. The Amazonia
(Brazil) nut is the most economically important plant product that is
harvested sustainably from the Amazonian rain forest. Today, close
to 70% of the world’s supply comes from the Pando region, an area Bolivia 20.020 / 83%
