UPDATE: BRUSSELS SPROUTS

May 24, 2023

The market remains elevated. Mexico is the primary growing region this time of year; supplies are limited.

  • Markon First Crop (MFC) and Ready-Set-Serve (RSS) Brussels Sprouts are limited; packer label is being substituted as needed
  • Demand is strong
  • Late-season quality issues, including yellowing/off color, bolting, and insect pressure, have significantly reduced yields in Mexico
  • The size profile is heavily skewed to smaller sprouts, as growers must harvest immature fields; jumbo-sized sprouts are scarce
  • Expect elevated markets and tight supplies through June until new crop stocks ramp up in California growing regions
