UPDATE: GREEN LEAF, ICEBERG, AND ROMAINE

October 15, 2025

Markets continue to escalate following storms in the Salinas Valley. Quality and yields will further diminish into next week.

  • Markon Best Available (MBA) is being substituted due to low weights
  • Most growers were rained out of harvests yesterday; today production is ongoing but slow as crews work through wet and muddy conditions
  • In addition to the two inches of rain (depending on location), some areas received hail yesterday afternoon, damaging mature and upcoming crops
  • Markon’s Quality Assurance team will continue to work closely with our grower-partners to select the very best lots and parts of the field for packing
  • Expect markets to remain elevated through the transition to the Arizona/California desert season in mid-November
