UPDATE: BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER

November 20, 2020

Broccoli and cauliflower prices are elevated; the Arizona/California desert season is off to a slow start.

  • Growers are finishing their last Salinas Valley and Santa Maria harvests for the 2020 season
  • Early season cauliflower head size is small in the desert region, tightening 9- and 12-count supplies
  • Warm weather will continue to help plants mature at a faster rate
  • After Thanksgiving, volume will rise and prices will start inching down
  • Expect elevated markets for the rest of November, pending any market disruption due to COVID-19
