Pecan growers get a high price for their crop when pecans are comparatively scarce, but the price drops sharply when pecans are abundant. Thus, in high-yield years, growers often hold back part of their crop in refrigerated warehouses for one or two years, hoping for higher prices in the future.

Answer:

each of the last two years produced record breaking  pecan yields.

Explanation:

Pecan growers tend to store Pecan when the crop yields a high yield, so in times of scarcity these growers can use the stored Pecan nuts to continue generating income for their production. From this we can conclude that if this year's nut crop was the smallest in five years, it is possible that part of this year's crop will be held back, since each of the last two years has produced a record nut yield.
