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
