Chayote prices and seasonality
Chayote is a tropical, frost-sensitive squash that has limited US production, including in southern Florida and California. US markets rely heavily on imports, especially from Mexico, with additional supplies possible from Central America and the Caribbean. Wholesale terminal-market prices depend on import arrivals, weather in producing areas, transportation conditions, and the volume available relative to demand. These reported prices are wholesale prices at terminal markets, not retail store prices.
