UPDATE: CUCUMBERS

March 4, 2026

Cucumber markets are escalating due to extremely limited supplies. Markon First Crop (MFC) Cucumbers are limited; packer label may be substituted.

  • Mexican supplies are extremely snug as older fields are producing low yields and new crop harvesting ramps up
    • Quality is average; mechanical damage is a problem during pack out
    • Demand is strong
  • Honduran stocks (arriving in Florida ports) are tighter than in years past; importers took a conservative supply approach after paying higher costs for port issues during the 2025 winter season
  • Florida-grown spring production is expected to start at the end of March/early April
  • Expect elevated prices over the next two weeks
