Produce

Romas held near $14/carton after prior gains. Iceberg nudged up slightly, and avocados continued trending lower. Yellow onions may strengthen in June.

Outlook: Core produce categories should remain stable in the short term with minimal pricing disruption expected.

grain commodity update from insidetrack week of march 25 2025

Grain

Wheat led a sector-wide rally, supported by drought concerns, global currency shifts, and 12-year-high export sales. Market speculation remains active.

Choice cutout rose 3% to $360.97/cwt; tenderloins hit $14.30/lb and striploins reached $11.21/lb. Grinds and trim also moved higher, with 81% ground beef at $3.59/lb. Futures are up, reflecting market optimism.

Outlook: Reduced harvest levels are tightening supply, likely keeping beef prices elevated across premium and value cuts.

Pork

Cutout increased to $100.27/cwt, driven by ribs and loins. Baby backs hit $3.00/lb, but butts and bellies slipped slightly. Export sales declined 4 million lbs, trimming momentum.

Outlook: Domestic demand is propping up pork prices; expect a steady near-term market with some risk tied to trade softness.

seafood commodity update from insidetrack

Seafood

Pollock dropped another 7% m/m and is down 21% since November, now nearing $1.40/lb. This matches seasonal lows.

Outlook: Prices are expected to firm gradually through fall—operators may want to secure current levels ahead of Q3 increases.
