Prices are easing. Mexican supplies are increasing, especially jumbo and extra-large sizes.
Mexico
- Markon First Crop (MFC) Asparagus remains limited out of Baja, Mexico; packer label is being substituted where necessary
- Mexico’s supply chain is recovering after several tropical storm systems passed across major growing regions over the past few weeks
- Jumbo and extra-large asparagus are gradually increasing as production returns to normal
- Overall size distribution remains skewed towards smaller-sized spears
- Quality ranges from fair to average; undersized and wrinkling spears have been reported, as well as spreading/seeding tips
- Expect lower pricing and improved availability of jumbo and extra-large sizes over the next 10 days
Peru
- Peruvian supplies are steady amid fair weather and favorable supply chain conditions
- Quality is good from newer fields in Northern Peru; spears are firm with minimal spreading/seeding
- Expect lower pricing and improved availability over the next 10 days
