So automatically it's a shortage of illegal aliens causing it? There was a local farmer(NJ) on the news the other night saying he had to let his crops die because he couldn't afford to fuel his irrigation pumps. He don't need no stinkin' pickers.
The cost of fuel and the fertilizers made from the same petroleum stocks, the cost of buying and maintaining equipment, property (and other) taxes, transportation of everything, the weather, competition, the weight of the jockey, and a million other things effect the price of fresh produce. Fluctuations in fresh produce prices are not unusual, even large ones.
