UPDATE: Bell Peppers
March 23, 2017
Bell pepper prices will increase over the next 10-14 days due to tighter supplies in Florida and Mexico.
- Growers will transition into the final stages of winter production in Sinaloa, Mexico and Southern Florida
- Inconsistent weather in both regions has slowed production as new crops ramp up
- Extra-large and large peppers will be especially limited over the next week as crews break into new fields
- Expect prices to climb over the next 10 days, then return to normal levels
