Mexico
- Product is being sourced primarily from Central Mexico and the Southern Baja
- Prices will ease through June as more supplies become available
- Under the existing U.S.-Mexico-Canada Trade Agreement (USMCA), Mexican asparagus is not being targeted for additional tariff enforcement
Peru
- Yields are low
- Quality ranges from fair to poor, but is improving with cooler weather
- Production is predominantly in the north of the country this month
- Peruvian prices will struggle to compete with Mexican-grown product due to tariffs, but will continue to ship into East Coast ports
U,S. and Canada
- The Pacific Northwest, California, and South Carolina seasons have ended
- Michigan and Southern Canada are past peak production
- Most growers are fully winding down by the end of the month
