Lime prices continue to rise the current crop finishes and new crop production starts; volume is low. Markon First Crop (MFC) and Markon Essentials (ESS) Limes are available.
Mexico (into South Texas)
- Current crop production is winding down, greatly reducing supplies of 110-, 150-, and 175-count sizes
- The new crop dominates the majority of harvests, shifting the peak size from large fruit to smaller, 230- and 250-count supplies
- Expect elevated markets in April as cold, dry weather earlier this year shortened the harvesting window resulting in lower volume
- Prices for larger sizes will be significantly higher than for small fruit
- New crop quality is very good
Colombia
- Packer label limes are available for loading out of Florida
- All sizes are available but the crop is dominated by 175- and 200-count fruit
- Prices will increase, following Mexico’s trend, but the Colombian market will remain lower
- Quality is good; blanching is a minor issue being caused by overcast weather
