LOL. Avocados need warm weather. If MMGW was real, it would bring the price down. I notice nobody at Chipolte claimed price increases were do to global warming. Apparently that little piece of spin came from ThinkProgress, whoever they may be.

This is "climate change", not warming. So the cold blasts we are having may affect the avocado market.

I don’t know if this adds anything to the conversation.

Along I-15 from Escondido to Temecula in soCal they call the freeway, the Avocado Hwy.

A few years ago 20,000 tress were burned in a wildfire. I don’t think they missed much of a beat getting product to market.

However, the water rates were increased significantly. I see a lot of groves and properties with trees on the market for sale.
I recently, sold a property with about 75 tress. Th buyers are having the trees removed.

I think Mexico is the other source.

I notice I still get avocado on dishes in Mexican restaurants and dip offered as well. Didn’t notice price in creases passed along.
