Market note on produce and sardine trade in Baltimore
The picker who started the decline is unlikely to gain sales advantages as others secure orders. Good quality produce sells freely with prices similar to new. String beans attract attention with higher prices as crops mature early. Best packs rise to 70 cents, yet buyers still order freely. Tomatoes sell steadily with no price gains. Domestic sardines trade unsettled with prices down to 4.50 per quarter oil, buyers cautious and avoiding excess orders. Packers reject patching up the combination, aiming for a do or die policy. No change to quotations.
