UPDATE: BROCCOLI

February 20, 2025

Markon First Crop (MFC) Premium Broccoli is being harvested in Arizona, California, Northern Mexico, and Central Mexico (loading in South Texas).

Arizona/California Desert and California’s Central Coast

  • Markets are steady at low levels
  • Supplies remain widely available
  • Quality is very good; some lots are exhibiting small crowns following weeks of cold weather
  • Higher temperatures this week and next will increase yields and crown size but could increase insect pressure
  • Limited production continues in Santa Maria, California
  • Expect prices to range from steady to lower as production increases in step with or even ahead of rising demand

Mexico

  • Mexican-grown MFC Premium Broccoli is available in South Texas
  • Quality is very good
  • Markets will range from steady to lower through February, with a sizeable spread compared to domestic desert price levels
