Abstract:	Macadamia nut processors routinely sample nuts received from a grower to determine the moisture content and quality of a lot. Commonly, the price paid to the grower is based on this quality evaluation. Growers can conduct a preliminary on-farm quality evaluation of their crop using the simple, rapid drying method outlined in this publication.
