Prices are steady; supplies are average as growing regions are in transition.
California
- The Salinas and Santa Maria seasons are winding down quickly; rains across California will hamper harvests
- The Arizona/California desert regions are harvesting, but supplies are not yet plentiful, due to cooler weather slowing maturity
- Quality out of Salinas and Santa Maria remains poor to fair; insect damage, small size, and discoloration are prevalent
- Supplies are sufficient to cover current demand
East Coast/Southeast
- Regional deals on the East Coast have mostly ended, apart from Southeastern growers
- Recent freezing temperatures across the Southeast have reduced harvestable yields
- Winter production is beginning in Florida and will increase through December
Texas/Mexico
- The South Texas domestic cabbage season has started out of the San Antonio-Winter Garden region
- Overall quality is good; size and density is better than California’s crop
- Imported supplies from Central Mexico continue to cross into South Texas with lower pricing
- Expect steady supplies in South Texas through the early part of December
