Climate-Smart Commodities and Market Development within the Chickasaw Nation

Chicksaw Nation,
U.S. Department of Agriculture


Restoring Power to Small Farmers and Communities Through Pecan and Specialty Crop Engagement

Participating farmers would receive incentives for climate-smart practices, including reducing chemical applications on pecan trees and conversion of pastures to multiple species of native grasses. Through this project, the Chickasaw Nation plans to work with native pecan aggregators to divide verified climate-smart native pecans from non-verified native pecans. These pecans would be sourced to sale for any industry interested in climate-smart pecans and to local consumers.
