Prices are rising; rain in Mexico and freezing temperatures across Guatemala have tightened supplies.

Mexico

• Markon First Crop (MFC) Sugar Snap Peas are limited; packer label is being substituted when possible
• Recent rains across Northern Mexico have lowered yields
• Quality issues have increased: scarring and discoloration are present in most lots, significantly reducing supplies crossing the border
• The Baja season will start next week, gradually alleviating strong demand in Northern Mexico
• Expect higher pricing and extremely limited supplies over the next two to three weeks

Guatemala

• Freezing temperatures and ice across lower elevation growing regions have caused quality issues and crop damage
• Frost damage, scarring, and discoloration are present in most lots, minimizing imported availability
• Higher elevation growing regions escaped the worst of the freeze; quality is generally better when sourced from mountain ranches
• Expect climbing markets, low volume, and increased quality issues as supplies recover from freeze damage over the next two to three weeks
