Basics

The Edible Seeds Inside the Pinecones of Certain Species of Pine Trees
Their More Difficult Harvesting, Long Time Required for Trees to Mature and Produce Pine Nuts, As Well As Their Lower Profitability Compared to Other Crops Has Resulted in Limited Cultivation
However the Market is Growing, and from a Permaculture / Food Forest perspective that may not matter as much!
Also Non-Timber Forest Products can be more sustainable than conventional forestry (often Clear Cutting or Slash and Burn etc) while still providing a livelihood for the local people
