The article summarizes a presentation by Mark De La Mater from the 2022 Tomato News Conference, focusing on the 2022 processing tomato season in California and its implications for the 2023 and 2024 crop years. The presentation highlighted the challenges faced by California's tomato processing industry, including drought, heatwaves, unseasonable rainstorms, and significant cost increases for processors and growers. Despite these challenges and strong market incentives, there was a 14% miss from initial production intentions in 2022, with record low inventory positions expected. Furthermore, assuming reasonable production and movement levels for 2023 and 2024, inventory levels do not rebound, staying at record lows, leading to continued strong upward pressure on bulk paste prices until July 2025. De La Mater stressed that the issues are rooted in the growing sector and urged stakeholders to collaborate to boost the sector's productivity and reliability to improve the supply chain's sustainability.

So we will start by taking a brief snapshot of the year-to-date performance. And then we will take the time to add a bit of additional context to the 2022 results. Then, with 2022 as the starting-off point, we are going to talk about 2023 and 2024 expectations. Finally, we will end up with a quick summary and some tentative conclusions. I think we have heard it throughout the conference: like virtually every other processor, California faced more than its share of challenges in 2022. If you are looking at environmental factors, 2022 was the third consecutive year of statewide drought conditions. And if you look at tomato processing, virtually 100% of all the areas that grow tomatoes in California experienced either extreme or exceptional drought conditions. And ...
