Markon First Crop (MFC) Broccoli and Markon Essentials (ESS) Cauliflower are readily available.
Broccoli
- California-grown quality is good; crown size, color, and structure is ideal
- Overall supplies are sufficient to meet demand; markets are mostly steady at slightly above-average levels
- Mexican-grown product is available for loading in South Texas at comparable FOB costs
- Product reviewed by Markon inspectors is exhibiting excellent quality due to dry, temperate weather
Cauliflower
- Yields are lower, but remain abundant in the West Coast growing regions of Salinas and Santa Maria
