Strong cucumber demand is forcing markets to rise. Cold weather has slowed overall production.

• Markon First Crop and Markon Essentials Cucumbers are available
• Production is underway in Northern Mexico; however, cooler weather and low evening temperatures are limiting plant yields this week; expect volume to increase in November when the Sinaloa season begins
• Baja production is past its peak; extra grading is required
• The Georgia growing region is experiencing cold evening temperatures (with potential frost advisories), slowing harvests
• Florida will struggle with supply in November and December due to hurricane Ian; many fields have been replanted
• Expect elevated prices over the next two weeks
