Tree Nut Farming
NAICS 111335 · United States · 2022 edition
This U.S. industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in growing tree nuts.
Review the farm operation beyond the crop.
Tree Nut Farming combines production risks with equipment, premises and labor concerns. Review crop loss, farm equipment, agricultural employer liability. Ask about custom work for others, storage and added processing; those activities need their own coverage discussion.
Questions to ask
- What tree nut crops are grown, and what is the total cultivated acreage?
- Is current MPCI coverage in place, and at what coverage level?
- What is the approximate value of owned farm equipment, particularly harvesting machinery?
- How many seasonal or migrant workers are employed at peak harvest, and is workers' compensation in place for agricultural employees?
- Are any on-site processing, hulling, or drying operations conducted beyond standard field-level activity?
- Is the land owner-operated, leased, or a combination — and are there any landlord-tenant liability considerations?
- For Tree Nut Farming, what should the underwriter know about operations in regions with high frost, drought, or wildfire frequency without corresponding crop insurance in place?
- For Tree Nut Farming, what should the underwriter know about large seasonal labor force without clearly documented workers' compensation or agricultural employer liability coverage?

Tree nut farms grow almonds, walnuts, pecans, pistachios, macadamia nuts, filberts, and similar tree crops on cultivated acreage. Operations typically involve orchard management, irrigation, fertilization, pest and disease control, and mechanical harvesting using specialized shakers, sweepers, and pickup equipment. Nuts may be dried, hulled, or temporarily stored on-site before sale to processors, handlers, or co-ops.
