Rutabagas price chart, 1-year history
Rutabagas prices and seasonality
Rutabagas are cool-season root vegetables grown in northern U.S. production areas, including parts of the Northeast, Upper Midwest, and Pacific Northwest. The main domestic harvest is in fall, and the crop stores well, so stored supplies commonly serve markets through winter and into spring. Canada is an important supplemental origin for U.S. terminal markets. Wholesale terminal-market prices, rather than retail store prices, reflect harvest volume, storage quality and availability, weather in growing regions, transportation, and Canadian competition.
