ONIONS
The onion market is still VERY active. FOB’s are steady albeit high. Mediums are nearly impossible to find in California. High demand and lack of onions is keeping the Jumbo market cleaned up as well. The Stockton CA district will have more availability by next week but onions are projected to be on the large size. Washington will see several sheds starting week of June 29th with the winter over yellow onions. This may ease the pressure somewhat on the Jumbos however; size profiles are generally large this time of the season. Look for the market to remain fairly steady for the first week in July then probably recede slightly.
