Blackberry prices are rising as the Mexican season gives way to U.S. domestic supplies.

 

Mexico volume compared vs USA 2020

We can see that Mexico has increased volume up to 92 million pounds since January and the USA regions have had small volume from January to April, said David Wilson, vice president of sales for Agtools Inc.

Blue Book has teamed with Agtools Inc., the data analytic service for the produce industry, to look at a handful of crops and how they’re adjusting in the market during the pandemic.

Since April we see California North and South taking the lead, respectively. The Mexico season is coming to an end and thus volume decreased considerably.
