UPDATE: CUCUMBERS

September 4, 2024

Cucumber markets continue to be elevated due to very light supplies out of Mexico. Autumn transitions will occur in September.

  • Mexico supplies are limited this week
    • Some growers in Baja are dealing low yields caused by plant viruses while others are transitioning away from older fields
    • Central Mexico volume is light due to poor weather
    • Quality is hit or miss
  • The Midwest and East coast will transition south to fall growing regions in mid to late September
    • Michigan, New Jersey and New York continue with decent volume and will run a few more weeks, weather permitting
    • North Carolina autumn season is underway with good quality
    • Georgia’s main fall season is set to start September 25th
  • Expect elevated prices over the next two weeks during summer/fall transitions
