Please click here to view a Markon Live from the Fields video regarding the recent and upcoming quality of lettuce crops out of the Huron, California growing region.

• Markon First Crop (MFC) Green Leaf, Iceberg, and Romaine are sporadically available in Huron, California; Markon Best Available is being substituted as needed
• Huron lettuce supplies were affected by a recent heat spike, causing quality challenges such as:
  • Internal burn
  • Insect damage
  • Inconsistent weights
  • Long core/seeder
  • Large ribs/misshapen heads
• The weather has cooled significantly; growers are expecting better overall quality this week
• Huron supplies will remain available for another two to three weeks
• Markon inspectors will continue monitoring quality in Huron as well as other active growing regions such as Salinas, Oxnard, and the upcoming Arizona/California desert region

Please contact your Markon customer service representative for further information.
