Markon First Crop (MFC) Broccoli is being shipped out of Salinas, California; Markon Best Available is being packed in Mexico (into South Texas).

• Markets are easing as supplies increase in both growing regions
• Varying levels of pin rot, branching, and yellowing persist but are decreasing
• Regionally grown stocks are extremely tight
  • The Indiana season has wrapped up
  • Georgia production won’t start until in mid- to late September
• Mexican-grown product (crossing into South Texas) is available at an FOB cost savings; hollow core defects from high heat are decreasingly an issue
• Expect prices to continue falling throughout the rest of August, then range from steady to lower through late September as acreage increases in California
