Book excerpt: Extract: Florida eggplant producers had the competitive edge over Mexican producers during the 1984/85 winter season, but the Mexicans had the advantage in supplying U.S. vegetable markets with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, green beans, and squash. That edge will survive if U.S. prices remain high enough to offset Mexico's high marketing costs and if Florida suffers more damaging frosts.
