  • Production has slowed on iceberg, romaine, romaine hearts, and green leaf due to inconsistent weather, rain, and INSV impacts across multiple shippers and growing regions. Reported quality issues include light weights, outer leaf discoloration, and insect pressure. Demand continues to exceed supply, driving prices higher.
  • Mexico’s avocado market continues to tighten as the main crop season winds down and growers hold back harvests in anticipation of higher pricing. Supply from Mexico is expected to remain below U.S. demand, while California volume remains limited. Markets are expected to stay elevated and volatile until Mexico’s Flor Loca crop and additional Peruvian volume begin ramping up in July

  • Butter lettuce supplies are tight due to weather and growing issues in California, especially in the Salinas Valley. Lower crop yields have led to limited availability and higher prices.
  • Eggplant supplies are limited, and prices are rising. Mexico has finished for the season, while Coachella has started but is facing major quality issues. Product shelf life has been poor, and a supply gap is expected until Fresno begins harvesting in the coming weeks
  • Artichoke (18ct) supplies are limited due to weather-related growing issues in California’s main production areas. Cooler temperatures and inconsistent growing conditions have slowed sizing, resulting in fewer large-count artichokes available. Strong demand and reduced yields are also contributing to higher prices.
  • Cucumber pricing is elevated as Mexican supplies, especially large sizes, continue to decline. California production is just beginning in light volumes, creating a supply gap and keeping overall availability tight.

  • INSV (Impatiens Necrotic Spot Virus) is currently impacting romaine and romaine heart supplies in the Salinas Valley. This field condition can cause internal browning or bronzing, necrotic (dead) spots on leaves and ribs, stunting and poor head development, and premature breakdown during transit or storage. The demand exceeds the supply, keeping prices elevated. 
  • Bell pepper prices are rising across all colors (red, green, yellow). Production in Mexico and Nogales is winding down, while California production is only beginning to ramp up. The market is expected to remain elevated until California reaches full production.
  • Lime prices are rising again as the new crop is producing smaller-sized fruit, limiting the availability of larger limes. Tight supplies of large fruit are continuing to put upward pressure on the market and driving the price up.
  • Tomato prices are declining as supply conditions improve, and demand weakens. Increased production from Florida and Central Mexico, along with the start of the Baja season, is boosting overall availability in the market.

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.
​

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.

Broccolini is currently limited due to a temporary production gap in California. Recent weather has impacted growing conditions, leading to delays and uneven supply. As a result, availability is lower than usual, and prices are higher than normal.

Cauliflower and broccoli continue to be limited and higher in price due to reduced production out of California, which is not enough to meet current demand. This has also impacted floret pricing, keeping it elevated.

Limes 150-200ct- limited production out Mexico. New crop running small and large fruit limited. Price is up.
