Heavy rains have saturated the last of the crops coming from the central portion of Florida directly affecting the quality of most of the fruit there. As fields transition, buyers look to North Florida and South Carolina for better quality tomatoes. Rounds are steady from last week and forecasted to remain steady moving lower in the next 7 to 10 days. Roma tomatoes are still limited in availability with Mexico being the main growing region for now. As the last of the grape tomatoes from Palmetto sell-off, quality is showing the effects of harsh weather shortening the supply of good quality tomatoes further.
