Supplies have tightened in multiple growing regions, increasing broccoli and cauliflower prices.

• Markon First Crop Broccoli and Markon Essentials Cauliflower will be limited over the next two weeks; packer label will be substituted, to fill orders
• Supplies are expected to remain tight over the next two weeks
• Cool weather has slowed growth over the last few weeks in the Salinas and Santa Maria growing region, resulting in fewer available supplies
• The Arizona/California desert growing region start is delayed, leading to overall lower industry supplies
• Mexican-grown broccoli volume (loading out of South Texas) has been reduced by heavy rains in the primary growing region
• Expect elevated markets through the next two weeks
