Markon First Crop (MFC) Potatoes are available in Idaho and Washington. Storage crop pricing remains low. As the storage season winds down over the next several months, Markon recommends ordering for quick turns and keeping inventories tight due to shorter shelf life.

Idaho

• Storage crop MFC Norkotah and Burbank Potatoes are being shipped
• Norkotah storage supplies are expected to be depleted by late June
• Burbank volume is slowly ramping up; the crop is dominated by small sizes
• The gradual shift from Norkotahs to Burbanks will result in fewer 40- through 80-count potatoes
• Pressure and shoulder bruising are beginning to show in late-season storage supplies, but overall quality remains strong; these issues (soft, external indents) result from constant contact with adjacent potatoes, or the floor, while raw product sits in storage piles

Washington

• Storage crop MFC Norkotah Potatoes are available
• Size is dominated by larger counts
• Quality is very good
• Markets remain steady

Colorado & Wisconsin

• All Colorado sizes are available with good mixer volume; demand for large, 40- and 50-count supplies is active
• Wisconsin yields are dominated by small, 90- to 120-count sizes
• Quality is good
• Prices continue to hold steady
