Input Wanted from Alberta Fruit and Vegetable Producers

Robert Spencer, commercial horticulture specialist at the Alberta Ag-Info Centre is asking fruit and vegetable producers to share direct market fruit and vegetable pricing information for Alberta. He says that having price information is valuable for people of all experience levels, but especially oneself, to use as a reference against one’s own pricing and to compare against when calculating the cost of production and setting prices. Go to the AB Direct Market Fruit/Veg Price Survey.

Spencer is looking for:

  • What Alberta producers charged for fruit and vegetable crops in 2018 – u-pick and pre-pick for farmers’ markets.
  • Prices changes for the coming season.
  • U-pick and pre-pick values, broken out for on-farm sales and farmers’ market prices for a range of fruit and vegetable crops.

Spencer will publish a per pound value or a per unit value depending on the crop and the number of data points he receives. For more information, contact Robert Spencer at the Alberta Ag-Info Centre, 310-FARM (3276).
