UPDATE: CILANTRO

August 03, 2021

Cilantro prices remain elevated due to limited supplies.

  • Ready-Set-Serve (RSS) Cilantro is available
  • Yields remain low following recent high temperatures in Oxnard, Salinas, and Santa Maria, California
    • Seeder continues to be prevalent in current fields, reducing harvestable yields
    • Sporadic burn, disease pressure, and yellowing are also present and limiting quality raw product availability
  • RSS Cilantro is currently achieving specified quality and shelf-life, but there is potential for early breakdown due to heat-related stress  
  • Expect high markets for the next two weeks until younger plantings without seeder issues reach harvest maturity
