During summer, sweet corn is a highly appreciated good in the US market and his demand is constantly growing. it's normal to see in every 4th of July's BBQ a good Sweet corn tray or on a sunny day this side to a good piece of stake.
Florida and Georgia are the biggest growers and supporters to the market during this period; nevertheless, weather conditions like freezing in late winter or constant rains during all year are the bigger (and constant) risk in the regions so, it’s necessary to think in alternatives.
Mexico in Bajio is the biggest sweet corn growing region during this period (today) and growers there have the capability to harvest there from mid May through October giving a good relief to the high demand in the US market, big suppliers like Mr Lucky or Nieto are some of the leaders in the area, but the demand requires more participation and more growers should be interested in this business.?#sweetcorn #usda
