Green onion prices are elevated; supplies remain tight following persistent heat and sporadic thunderstorms in the primary growing region of Mexicali, Mexico.

• Ready-Set-Serve (RSS) Washed & Trimmed Green Onions are available; packer label may be substituted when supplies do not meet Markon specifications

• Yields were reduced in early August by fast-moving storm systems that wiped out many mature lots

• Persistent heat has slowed the growth of younger plantings, keeping industry stocks limited
• Demand is strong for long-top green onions; stocks will tighten by week’s end
• Ordering for quick turns is recommended through the rest of August
• Expect markets to remain elevated for the next two weeks, as younger plantings mature and supplier inventories increase
