Onion Shipping Point Prices for July 11, 2022
Sweet onions from Walla Walla, Washington started shipping about July 6 with good demand. Demand remains good and the market is steady, with jumbos bringing $25 for a 40 lb. carton and mediums realizing $23. These prices are $5 over last year, when colossals were available. The larger onions have not started shipping this year, because growing conditions are a couple weeks behind in the PNW.
Southern New Mexico is on a tear. Yellows are up $4 from our last report, and have increased nearly $5 over the last month. Jumbo whites from the area are up $4 since June 13 and mediums have gone up two bucks since then.
