UPDATE: CAULIFLOWER

November 16, 2023

Cauliflower markets are steady as the West Coast and Arizona desert harvests begin to overlap.

  • Markon Essentials (ESS) Cauliflower is available; packer label may be substituted, as needed to fill orders
  • End of season quality challenges in California are hastening the move to desert supplies
    • Appearance defects such as discoloration/spotting, ricing, leafy curds, and mold remain prevalent
    • Ordering for short turns is advised for the next one to two weeks, as California finishes the season
  • Early reports are positive for both yields and quality out of the Arizona and California desert regions
  • Although lower markets are expected this week amid lighter holiday demand and more abundant supplies, prices will rise and volume will fall again in three to four weeks
