Restraints/Challenges

• Fluctuations in Prices hampers the Demand of Pistachio

Price fluctuations can be influenced by various factors such as changes in global demand, supply disruptions due to weather conditions or geopolitical tensions, and currency fluctuations. Such volatility makes it challenging for producers to plan and invest in cultivation, while consumers may hesitate to purchase pistachios during periods of high prices.
