During H1’26, almond prices in India declined from ~USD 10,492.86/MT in April to ~USD 9,872.00/MT in June, showing a ~5.9% decrease, while US almond prices increased from ~USD 1,002.27/MT in April to ~USD 1,018.00/MT in June, showing a ~1.6% increase. In North America, almond markets remained broadly stable during H1’26 as weaker domestic demand balanced tighter supply conditions. California domestic shipments through May declined 13.61% year over year, limiting upward price movement. However, export shipments increased 1.66% during the same period, while total available supply declined 1.24%, supporting market stability. In Asia, prices showed stronger volatility due to higher freight costs, route disruptions and supply concerns. Indian traders reported higher wholesale prices earlier in the period as international logistics costs increased, although weaker import activity later reduced buying pressure. California almond shipments to Asia-Pacific declined 8.9% year over year in May, with shipments to India down 26.1%, while Southeast Asia recorded stronger demand. The supply outlook remained supportive as the California crop forecast was slightly lower than the previous year, while orchard removals reduced productive acreage. Demand from food processing, snacks and plant-based beverages continued supporting consumption, while new nut-based processing initiatives improved long-term demand prospects.

In 2025, almond prices experienced significant volatility across global markets. Early in the year, prices in Uzbekistan rose sharply due to strong international demand and the risk of crop failures in Turkey. Exporters faced tight supplies, and assembling large shipments became challenging, which pushed domestic and international prices higher. Both local and imported varieties saw their price gaps narrow, as strong demand lifted all types to similar levels.
In the United States, the market experienced unusual instability. The release of the annual objective forecast by the Almond Board of California in mid-year caused a sudden price drop, as estimates for production were widely off from actual outcomes. This led to one of the largest single-day losses in recent history and caused widespread concern among growers. While production per acre was lower than expected, supply from existing stocks remained available, which helped moderate some of the losses, but the overall market remained uncertain for several months.
Buyers and processors benefited from the unexpected price movements, while growers faced financial strain. The sudden shifts highlighted the influence of trade policies, such as tariffs, and environmental factors, like frosts in major producing regions, on price dynamics. Overall, almond prices moved sharply up in early 2025 but faced sudden declines mid-year, ending the year with a cautious sentiment across major markets.
The almond tree, also known as Prunus dulcis, is native to Iran and surrounding countries. The fruit of this tree is a drupe, comprising of an outer hull and a hard shell with the seed. The term almond generally refers to the edible and extensively cultivated seed of this tree. These seeds, that is, almonds, are a rich source of protein and their consumption may reduce the risk of heart disease, further offering several health benefits.
