Guatemala Melon, good volumes and high prices expected

Spring cultivation is now starting in Guatemala for the honeydew and cantaloupe melons. There are usually two production cycles, with the spring cycle being the second. The first production cycle of this season was badly disrupted by hurricanes Eta and Iota in November 2020, which left hardly any volumes available. Fortunately, the newly started second cycle seems to be running smoothly and volumes are expected to be good, with high prices due to shortages earlier in the season.
