Cabbage markets are elevated. Supplies are limited; demand remains strong.
- California’s hot weather has reduced yields
- Disease/insect pressure and seeder core have developed
-
- Lower yields per acre have significantly reduced availability for processors, driving the general market higher
- Central Coastal and Salinas Valley suppliers are harvesting fields ahead of schedule to avoid further quality issues
- Expect elevated prices out of California over the next 10-14 days, at minimum, as growers begin to transition south toward the desert region for fall and winter
- The Michigan and Ohio seasons will wind down through mid- to late October; North Carolina supplies are tight
- Production will start in Georgia and the Winter Garden region of Texas in late October
