FICO Agrees to Sell 61-Year Pecan Operation
Farmers Investment Co., the company behind one of Southern Arizona's largest pecan operations, has agreed to sell its land and all other holdings, bringing an end to 78 years of the Walden family farming along the Santa Cruz River near Sahuarita. The sale covers more than 7,000 acres of orchards spread across Sahuarita, Continental and San Simon, and FICO expects the deal to close sometime during November 2026.
