## Resource

Tomato growers in California’s Central Valley are bracing for potential rain disruptions as El Niño looms — and they’re racing to harvest before storms hit. With harvest season already underway, farmers like Morning Star Tomatoes are moving fast to get as much crop in before soggy fields ground operations and risk rotting fruit. While rain after November is ideal, forecasters stress the uncertainty of El Niño’s timing — so growers are preparing, but not panicking, as they watch the skies and plan ahead.
