Abstract: A market window analysis was constructed to analyze the market potential for vegetables grown on reclaimed phosphatic clay in Polk County, Florida. Weekly new returns averaged over an eight year period in nominal and real terms were used to identify market windows. Five vegetable crops, cabbage, cucumbers, peppers, and several types of squash and sweet corn were included in the analyses. The results indicated that cabbage, white sweet corn, cucumbers, and crookneck squash may be economically viable for production on reclaimed phosphatic day in Central Florida.
