We can expect prorates, gaps and quality issues due to the weather. Harvest crews will not be able to get out into the muddy fields to harvest. Cold and rain will also slow down production, tightening up volumes and prices will rise as supply decreases. This includes berries, citrus, arugula, sweet baby broccoli, leaf lettuces, green onions, radishes, salad greens and more.

Heavy rain throughout California continues for yet another week. Citrus has certainly been affected with harvest coming to a halt on Clementines, Navels and upcoming Tango crop. The rain has made it cumbersome for the workers and tractors to get out on the muddy ground.
