Prices remain elevated. Supplies are limited as the domestic season is winding down.

California – Salinas and Santa Maria Valleys

• Quality problems persist
  • Cooler temperatures, shorter days, wind, and overnight frosts have shortened shelf-life
  • External pitting, scarring, small size, and water damage are prevalent, lowering yields from the field
• Expect limited supplies to persist as the season wraps up in early December

Imports – Northern Mexico and Peru

• Peruvian supplies are tight but are helping to supplement the market; quality is slightly better
• Stocks from Northern Mexico are beginning to enter the market; however, reports indicate harvests remain approximately 7-10 days behind schedule
• Markets will remain elevated until production ramps up in mid- to late December
