About this Site

The Market News Portal was developed in response to customer needs for increased amounts of information, tailored to a user's specific requirements and preferences. This site is geared to provide current information in a timely manner, with a minimum number of navigational steps, and to allow you to refine the information to just the data you are searching for. The Portal is also designed to supply historical data quickly, both for viewing and for downloading to your own computer in a variety of formats.

The Portal gives you the option to register as a user, giving you even more customized features, such as saving reports with bookmarks, emailing reports or bookmarks, creating graphs from the information shown on a Portal report, scheduling reports for future delivery and giving you the opportunity to join a Community of users with an interest in similar commodities. There is no charge for registration and the process is simple.

The Market News Portal was first released in October, 2005 as a service to the fruit and vegetable industry, researchers, government, and other users and we continually look for ways to improve our service. If you have comments or suggestions, please let us know by completing the feedback form.
