Markets continue to ease. Peruvian imports are limited but Mexican production will remain in full swing through February. Markon First Crop (MFC) Asparagus is available.

Mexico

• Quality is currently ranging from very good to excellent
• Production is nearing its peak in Caborca, Mexico
• All sizes are readily available with minimal price spreads between the small and large sizes
• Additional customs enforcement, inspections, and checkpoints on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border have led to some delays in product crossings, but truly abundant supplies will help avoid any shortages that could result from such issues throughout the next two to three weeks
• Expect markets to ease into next week and then remain steady in March

Peru

• Supplies (shipped into Miami, Florida) are minimal; volume is low amid hot weather during the Peruvian summer
• Quality is fair, with much longer transit times relative to Mexican-grown product
• Should tariffs add cost to Mexican supplies, Peru may act as a small relief valve, but it will not be able to support all national demand
