Content: An increase of almost 100% in demand in the USA alone. To complicate matters further, there is an increasing demand from Europe and China. Both of these are importing increasingly more of Mexico’s crop. This leaves less for American consumption. Consequences of Rising Avocado Demand and Reducing Supply
The overall result is a significant reduction in supply from one year to the next combined with a generally increasing demand. The consequence of these factors is a significant increase in price. Your guacamole is going to cost a lot more for the foreseeable future! A 22 lb (10 Kg) box of avocados is priced at $27.89 – over double that of the same time last year. Avocados have many uses other than for their use in guacamole. They are used in drinks, are eaten raw and cooked, used in spreads and for their healthy oil content.
