The USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) 2025 California Almond Objective Measurement Report forecasts that approximately 3.0 billion pounds of almonds will be produced in 2025. If achieved, this would mark the second-largest almond crop on record, surpassed only by the 3.1 billion pounds produced in 2020.
The projected increase in production is driven by a 9% year-over-year rise in yield. USDA NASS estimates the 2025 almond yield at 2,160 pounds per acre. While this figure is higher than the yields of the previous three seasons, it is not statistically different from the 10-year average of 2,123 pounds per acre.
Preliminary 2025 almond bearing acreage is up by less than 1%, an increase of 10,000 acres, from the previous year, reaching a record 1.39 million acres (562,600 hectares).
