About Florida potato prices
Florida winter/spring fresh crop (round red / white / yellow).
Season. Florida potatoes typically ship March through May, based on where USDA movement volumes concentrate over the year. Outside that window fresh shipping point quotes thin out, which is normal crop rotation, not a data gap.
