Supplies are limited as recent heat has accelerated maturity creating a supply gap across the industry. Availability is tight on both Broccolini Baby Broccoli and Sweet Baby Broccoli. Markon First Crop and Ready-Set-Serve Broccolini Baby Broccoli is limited; packer label will be substituted as needed.

• Industry supplies are constrained, with most fields currently in fifth-cut production

• Recent heat and humidity accelerated crop development and resulted in additional quality challenges

• Quality concerns include yellow beading and premature flowering
• These issues are expected to increase following warmer Central Coast weather
• Availability is expected to remain tight for the next two to three weeks until newer acreage reaches first-cut harvests
