Cash Prices Seasonality Tab
Purpose
The Seasonality Tab places a single price series into a seasonal context by comparing it against itself across multiple years.
How it works
Instead of comparing different price series, this tab:
Compares the same price series year over year
Aligns prices by calendar month
Overlays growing season phases
What you see
The tab includes:
A line chart showing multiple years of price history
A comparison of current-year prices to past years
Forward-looking expectations for the upcoming year
A price comparison box summarizing key differences
A table showing average monthly prices for each selected year
This view helps identify:
Normal seasonal price behavior
Unusual price spikes or drops
Years that behaved similarly to the current one
