The WANATCA Archives

For those of you who don't recognize WANATCA (I didn't, I'll confess), it's the West Australian Nut & Tree Crop Association. For an organization I've never heard of, they've been fairly productive in terms of publications: Yearbooks, their Quadong magazine, and the proceedings of the Ninth Australasian Confernce on Trees and Nut Crops.

WANATCA Yearbooks On-line

They're all in PDFs, and the layout gets a little tiring to read, but there's a lot of good stuff in there. A quick click through turned up a bananas, nuts, litchi, mango, coconut, and a couple of pieces on nuts, including a history of nuts by George Slate, who was fairly well known as a fruit breeder at Cornell. There's an index available, if you're looking for something specific in the yearbooks.
