UPDATE: BRUSSELS SPROUTS

May 16, 2023

The market is elevated. Mexico is the primary growing region this time of year; supplies have decreased significantly.

  • Markon First Crop (MFC) and Ready-Set-Serve (RSS) Brussels Sprouts are extremely limited; packer label is being substituted, as needed
  • Late-season quality issues, including yellowing/off color, bolting, and higher insect pressure, have significantly reduced yields in Mexico
  • Size profile is heavily skewed to smaller sprouts as growers must harvest immature fields to meet current demand
  • Expect firm markets and tight supplies through mid-June amid strong demand and continued delays in the new crop California growing regions
