LIVE FROM THE FIELDS: SALINAS VALLEY QUALITY UPDATE

August 21, 2024

Please click here to view a Markon Live from the Fields video regarding the current quality of key vegetable items in the Salinas Valley.

  • Quality for lettuces and other Salinas row crops is very good; sporadic insect and long core issues are present in some lots
  • Demand is strong; supplies are snug
  • September through November are historically some of the most volatile months for quality, supply, and shelf-life performance
  • Now is a good time to take advantage of good quality as the industry passes the peak of the growing season
