Squash, Butternut prices and seasonality
Butternut squash is a winter squash harvested mainly from late summer through fall and can be cured and held as a storage crop after harvest. Michigan, New York, and California are important U.S. winter-squash producing areas, while Mexico is a principal source of imported fresh squash, particularly during winter and spring. Wholesale terminal-market prices are shaped by the size and quality of the stored domestic crop, new-crop harvest timing, weather in producing regions, and the volume of competing imports. These reported prices are wholesale terminal-market prices, not retail store prices.
