The hailstorm battered the pecan trees, however not all the crop was knocked off the trees and can still be harvested when ready, but this is only about half of the crop. The nuts that fell to the ground can be salvaged depending on the weather.
If these nuts cannot be salvaged, farmers could lose up to $500,000, if they can they will only lose £30,000-$40,000.
