I would agree with you but, from my limited observation, there seems to be an awful lot of pumkins left over after halloween has been and gone. Maybe what already happens isn't the best way?
- lotsofpulp 5y agoI have no idea. I generally assume markets with many participants that have existed for many years and with seemingly no regulations, are the way they are because various constraints of nature have tended towards that solution. One would need to know what a typical amount of waste is and the cause of that waste to determine if there is too much waste and how to fix it. But I am guessing whatever waste there is now is a pretty optimal amount of waste unless there is some new development that reduces the volatility of producing pumpkins. Farming in general is like that, since so many variables are outside of peoples’ control. You have to aim for extra even if you are not projecting to sell all of it, assuming the cost of making the extra is absorbable.
