Pecan Tree Damage from Storms

August 8, 2018 by Jennifer Morganthaler

On Tuesday 8-7-18 storms passed over the Fruit Station and damaged one of the Pecan Trees in the Northern Pecan Tree Cultivar Trial.  The weather station recorded 42.9 mph peak wind gusts and a ‘Mandan’ Pecan tree was broken off at ground level.  ‘Mandan’ cultivar originated from a controlled cross made in Brownwood, Texas in 1985. The tree form is tall, but narrow in width abundant branches and strong branch angles.
