UPDATE: SQUASH

April 15, 2026

Prices are two‑tiered—with ample supplies on the East Coast and low volume in Mexico, increasing West Coast markets. Markon First Crop (MFC) Zucchini and Yellow Squash are available.

Florida

  • Squash supplies have increased drastically over the last few weeks
  • Quality is very good
  • Georgia growers will start harvesting in two weeks
  • Expect low markets to persist for several weeks

Mexico

  • Hot weather and low market conditions led some growers to abandon older fields in southern growing districts over the past 7–10 days
  • These factors resulted in an approximate 50% reduction in supply levels in one week, causing prices to escalate
  • Markets are expected to remain active until new crop domestic production begins
  • Availability is expected to tighten into early May; the season will wind down by mid‑May
