Fresh-run Markon First Crop (MFC) Onions are available in Northern California and New Mexico.

California

• Northern California supplies are tighter this week as growers break into new lots
  • Several growers are experiencing minor supply gaps following abnormally warm weather
  • Supplies are dominated by jumbo sizes; medium sizes are somewhat limited
• Quality is good; fresh-run onions will exhibit higher moisture content, thinner skins, and overall shorter shelf life
• Markon recommends ordering for quick turns
• Expect higher prices over the next 7-10 days as demand increases in reaction to lower volume

New Mexico

• New Mexico’s fresh-run onion harvests are lighter this week; high temperatures are hindering growth and reducing harvest times, reducing overall supplies
• Stocks are dominated by jumbo and larger sizes; medium onions remain limited
• Quality is good; fresh-run onions will exhibit higher moisture content, thinner skins, and overall shorter shelf life
• Markon recommends ordering for quick turns
• Expect higher prices over the next 7-10 days as production works to meet current demand

Washington

• Red, yellow, and white storage supplies been depleted
• Growers are transferring onions from California to fill orders
• Prices will remain elevated until fresh-run harvests begin in the fall
