UPDATE: CELERY
January 07, 2021
Celery markets remain elevated due to limited supplies.
- Markon First Crop Celery is available
- Stocks are below normal levels in Coachella, Oxnard, and Santa Maria, California due to recent strong holiday demand and persistently cold temperatures
- Production in Florida is ramping up after being delayed two to three weeks by inclement weather; size is increasing, but remains smaller than ideal
- Disease pressure, such as fusarium, continues to reduce harvestable stalks in some lots in Oxnard, California
- Overall quality is excellent in all growing regions: stalks are firm with deep color
- Markets are expected to remain active through January
