UPDATE: BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER

November 09, 2020

Broccoli and cauliflower prices are rising as growers begin the transition south to the Arizona/California desert region.

  • Suppliers are entering the last Salinas Valley and Santa Maria fields for this season
  • Demand is strong; orders are being supplemented by Mexican product
  • There will be an overlap in growing regions over the next three weeks, with limited quantities available in Arizona/California growing areas
  • Cooler Salinas Valley temperatures have led to smaller head size due to slowed growth
  • Expect active markets for the rest of November
