About Delaware potato prices
Delaware's quotes on this site cover the Delmarva Peninsula, the round-potato ground shared with Maryland and Virginia's Eastern Shore. It is a red, white and yellow fresh-crop district with red carrying a slight edge on this site, and it has never quoted a russet.
Packing runs mostly to 2,000 lb bulk totes with 50 lb sacks behind them, a repack-and-foodservice profile similar to Virginia's just to its south. Delaware sits in the Eastern Seaboard's round-potato rotation between Virginia and New York, picking up as the mid-Atlantic season moves north. USDA's published shipping point coverage of Delaware has gone quiet in recent years; where the page above shows a stale-quote badge, that is a genuine gap in USDA's reporting for this district, not a site error, and it is the longest-quiet of the origins this site still carries a page for. See red for how Delaware has compared historically with the rest of the Eastern Seaboard.
Against the national benchmark. The quotes on this page are Delaware's alone. For the single figure the trade quotes as the market, potato prices today follows Idaho's 70-count russet carton per carton, per hundredweight, per pound and per potato, with the date of USDA's latest quote.
Common questions
Why is there no current Delaware potato price?
USDA has not published a shipping point quote for Delaware since Oct 1, 2021. That last quote was Size A whites in bulk totes at $13.50-16.50/cwt ($0.135-0.165/lb). This page keeps Delaware's quote history as a record rather than presenting an old price as a live one, and it will show a current price again if USDA resumes quoting the district.
When did Delaware quote potato prices?
USDA quoted Delaware on 50 days in 2021 on this site's record, most of them from July through September. Its last quote was Oct 1, 2021.
Does Delaware still ship potatoes?
Not in USDA's current reports. USDA's Daily Movement reports logged 85,000 cwt of fresh Delaware potato shipments in the 12 months to Oct 1, 2022, across 39 report days. By type, that volume was 72% round white, 22% yellow and 6% red. The last day on record, Oct 1, 2022, logged 900 cwt. A hundredweight (cwt) is 100 lb. Neither shipments nor prices for Delaware have been reported since.
