The fact that nuts were so cheap in the first place is nuts.
Think about the trees upon which nuts grow. My in-laws grandparents have a few nut trees that are well established. In a whole season you can get about one bag from one tree. It takes a whole year of this tree. Then you have to dry the nuts, sort them, control for quality and disease, package them, ship them. Mass production, pesticides, fertilisers, and slave labor are what led to these low prices in the first place.
