UPDATE: GREEN LEAF, ICEBERG, AND ROMAINE

June 23, 2023

Iceberg markets continue to rise. Green leaf and romaine prices are inching up.

  • Markon First Crop (MFC) Premium Green Leaf and Romaine are readily available
  • MFC Premium Iceberg is currently being packed; Markon Best Available (MBA) may be substituted next week due to low weights
  • Persistently cold weather in many parts of the Salinas Valley is hindering iceberg growth; quality is strong apart from light weights in some lots
  • Green leaf and romaine quality is very good; fog, fringe, and internal burn are present in some lots, but are avoidable at harvest
  • Markets are expected to continue inching up through next week, before leveling out

Please contact your Markon customer service representative for more information.
