Parsnips prices and seasonality
Parsnips are a cool-season root crop grown in several US regions, including northern production areas and California, and they can be marketed from storage after harvest. Canada is an important supplemental source for US markets, particularly when domestic supplies are limited. Weather during planting and harvest, storage condition, freight, and the balance between available roots and demand can affect terminal-market wholesale prices. Terminal-market quotations describe wholesale trade, not prices paid by shoppers in retail stores.
