UPDATE: SQUASH

February 21, 2023

Mexican zucchini is abundant; markets are low. Yellow squash prices are higher. Markon First Crop (MFC) Zucchini and Yellow Squash are available.

  • Growers in Western Mexico are shipping ample zucchini stocks; however, yellow squash volume is low due to last week’s inclement weather
    • Expect most growers to transition from Sinaloa to Sonora during the first week of March
  • Florida squash supplies are adequate despite the fact that winter crops are past peak production; spring production is expected to start in Plant City in three to four weeks
    • Zucchini quality is good
    • Scarring and scuffing issues are being observed in yellow squash
  • This week’s favorable weather will keep markets stable
