Why Asian cut crown Broccoli is moving
High confidenceThe market for Asian cut crown Broccoli has seen a notable surge, with current prices at $38.00 per case, marking a +24.6% increase over the week. This escalation is largely due to constrained supplies from primary Western growing regions, as elevated temperatures linked to strong El Niño conditions continue to affect yields and quality in California, resulting in smaller sizing and other defects. Mexican production, a crucial base, remains very light and is anticipated to stay limited for several more weeks. Compounding these issues, heavy insect pressure, particularly from diamondback moths, is further tightening availability and leading to prorates from some growers. Additionally, rising truck freight rates from the West Coast are contributing to the upward price pressure.

About Asian cut crown Broccoli
Despite the name, this is the brassica group as the New York trade actually buys it: green, red, savoy and napa cabbage, but also broccoli, broccoli crowns and rabe, broccolini, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, kale and kohlrabi. The group is offered year-round, with California and Mexico as the base supply and New York State, Quebec, Ontario, New Jersey, Maine and the Southeast cutting in when their fields are running. These are hand-cut, cooled crops, so a heat event or a labor problem in the shipping district shows up in the quote quickly rather than gradually.
Buying notes
Heads are ordered by count or by a size code, broccoli by the bunch or as crowns by weight, and florets by the bag, so a cabbage quote and a broccoli quote are not the same unit even on the same order. Most lines here also exist as a half case or a two-count, and we list every pack we see quoted rather than reducing them to a single figure.
