Florida's severe weather has caused minor production losses, but damage is being offset by movement of production to Georgia. Overall, produce prices are decreasing due to increased production in the West, new spring crops, and lighter demand. The ProduceIQ Index reports a 7.4% decrease in produce prices over the past week, with specific commodities like grapes and celery experiencing significant price drops. However, heavy rain in the Southeast has led to supply issues in tomatoes, with cherry and grape markets finding stability due to increased Western supply. The ProduceIQ Index is a fair benchmark for industry price performance, representing the industry-wide price per pound at the location of packing for domestic produce and at the port of U.S. entry for imported produce.
