​Asparagus prices continue to stary high due to a supply gap between growing regions in Mexico. Baja California is starting, but not enough production to full fill the demand. USA will fill the void, but prices maintain elevated. 
White corn pricing is currently high due to strong demand and limited supply, as yellow corn is still not available. This has increased pressure on the market. New yellow corn from California is expected to be available later this week.  Pricing will remain high until the California production is in full swing.
All leafy items (romaine, romaine hearts, iceberg, and green leaf) continue to experience a supply gap.  Production is limited, and pricing continues to maintain high. We expect availability to improve as field conditions recover.  This will also impact any processed item like 4-way salad, and shredded lettuce.
Cauliflower prices are currently elevated as the Arizona–California desert season has finished, and production transitions to the Salinas Valley. This seasonal gap has tightened supply, causing demand to exceed availability and driving prices high.
