Strong Demand and Climate Challenges Drive up Prices for Mexican Organic Roma Tomatoes in the US

Mexican organic Roma tomato prices in San Diego, California, and Nogales, Arizona, markets are witnessing robust high prices in the United States (US) before the Christmas weekend. During W51, prices for 25-pound boxes were quoted as follows:
Jumbo: USD 32 to 35
X-Large: USD 32 to 35
Large: USD 32 to 35
Insufficient supply from Sinaloa and Baja California, coupled with a month-long delay in the first harvest due to harsh climate conditions, is expected to sustain rising prices. However, slow warehouse rotation is anticipated until prices exhibit a more stable trend.
