Iranian Super Long / Akbari Pistachio

The most favorable and commercial type of pistachio harvested in Iran is Akbari, which is more elaborate than “Ahmad Aghaei pistachios”, “Round and Jumbo pistachio” and has higher commercial value.
This type is generally well cultivated in Rafsanjan and Kerman. But it is also cultivable in other Iranian cities. In addition to Rafsanjan and Kerman, this type grows in the cities and provinces of Qazvin, Ardakan, Yazd, Khor and Biabank of Isfahan and Qom.The pistachio tree is a form that requires a lot of winter cold and is resistant to the cold. The tree’s is less planted in the tropics and if it is planted it is not as cold as the pistachio.

Ground conditions, type of irrigation, and length of cold play a major role in the growth and development of the Iranian Pistachios.

The pistachio tree blooms later than any other pistachio tree, so it grows later and unlike most specimens that are ready to be harvested in early September to mid-September, the Akbari sample should usually be harvested at the end of September.

Akbari are more difficult to produce than other types, and the pistachio tree needs much more care. Because it is ready to be harvested later and may heat up if inadequate attention is also susceptible to pest.
