It is a round-potato fresh-crop district, red, white and yellow in close to even shares on this site, and it has never quoted a russet. Packing here runs mostly to 50 lb sacks with 2,000 lb bulk totes behind them, a foodservice-and-repack profile rather than the retail-carton mix seen further south in Florida. Virginia sits in the middle of the Eastern Seaboard's round-potato rotation, picking up after Florida and North Carolina finish their runs and handing off to Delaware and New York as the season moves north, so a Virginia quote is a mid-calendar read on the fresh round-potato trade rather than a start- or end-of-season one. See [red](/variety/red), [white](/variety/white) and [yellow](/variety/yellow) for how the Eastern Seaboard's fresh-crop districts compare. ## About this data - Source: USDA AMS shipping point potato FOB reports (FV130) and Daily Movement (FV170) - Series: Potato FOB price at a benchmark variety, pack and size - Basis: FOB shipping point, low-high range - Geography: Virginia - Unit: $/50 lb sack - Last observation: Jul 28, 2025 - Update frequency: USDA reports on business days --- Cite: Virginia potato FOB prices are 37% below their 4-yr median for the date (USDA shipping point reports).
