With Peru representing about 50 percent of Alpine Fresh\u2019s asparagus program, it is an extremely important sourcing country.<\/p>\n<p>Peru is also the second largest asparagus grower in the world, behind China.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Peru, Alpine Fresh also imports from Mexico 12 months a year. However, supply from Mexico, the world\u2019s third largest asparagus grower, is challenging this winter as well. \u201cSupply issues in Mexico have compounded the availability issue,\u201d said Yager. \u201cThis shows how important it is to source from both countries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As a result of supply issues in both Peru and Mexico, pricing has been historically high. \u201cWe hope that with El Ni\u00f1o expected to be lighter next year, supplies can get back to normal, so we can grow the category.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"content_custom_right\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freshplaza.com\/remote\/https\/agfstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/misc\/FP_com\/2024\/01\/11\/AlpineFresh_logo_index_updated.jpg?preset=ContentCustom\" alt=\"\" \/>For more information:<br \/>\nWalter Yager<br \/>\n<strong>Alpine Fresh<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:wyager@alpinefresh.com?subject=Response to FreshPlaza.com article\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wyager@alpinefresh.com<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.alpinefresh.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.alpinefresh.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Both Peru and Mexico faced with low asparagus supply El Ni\u00f1o has caused a drop in asparagus supply from Peru this season.
