Markets are climbing as weather-related disruptions in Mexico and Salinas tighten supplies and affect quality.

Mexico

• Markon First Crop (MFC) Sugar Snap Peas are limited; packer label is being substituted
• Above-average heat and recent rainfall across Northern Mexico have reduced available yields
• Quality issues have increased: scarring and discoloration are being reported in most lots
• Supplies remain tight due to reduced harvestable volume and prevalent defects
• Expect higher pricing and limited supplies over the next three weeks

Salinas/Santa Maria

• Ongoing rain events have slowed harvesting throughout the Salinas Valley
• Excess moisture has contributed to increased quality challenges, including scarring and other cosmetic issues
• Demand is exceeding available volume, supporting higher markets
• Expect elevated pricing and quality variability as weather impacts work through the supply chain
