Price of Pumpkins on the Rise Due to Supply and Demand Fluctuations and Climate Change Impact on Mexican Harvests

The main drivers of the price increase are the fluctuations in supply and demand and the impact of climate change on pumpkin crops. The year 2022 has been particularly challenging for Mexican pumpkin farmers, who have had to deal with unpredictable weather patterns, such as droughts and floods, that have adversely affected their harvests.

Additionally, the demand for pumpkins has been fluctuating wildly due to changing consumer preferences and the disruptions. These factors have made it challenging for farmers to meet the demand for pumpkins, leading to a spike in prices.
