UPDATE: GREEN ONIONS

August 16, 2023

 The green onion market continues to rise. Yields are declining following elevated temperatures in the primary growing region of Mexicali, Mexico. Thunderstorms forecast this weekend may limit or cancel harvests, further putting pressure on limited industry supplies.

  • Ready-Set-Serve (RSS) Green Onions are available
  • Elevated day and nighttime temperatures increased ground temperatures in Mexicali
    • Onions are growing quickly in length, but possess thin/weak stems
    • Hot weather is hindering quality and reducing maturity
  • Thunderstorms, with 0.50” of rain in total, are forecast this weekend in Mexicali; harvests may be reduced or canceled
  • Expect elevated markets to persist for the next four to six weeks, at minimum
