UPDATE: GREEN LEAF, ICEBERG, AND ROMAINE HARVESTING TRANSITION

October 25, 2023

Green leaf, iceberg, and romaine supplies remain ample as the Santa Maria and Salinas Valley seasons wind down. Harvesting in Huron and Oxnard, California is supplementing orders until Arizona/California desert production begins.

  • Markon First Crop (MFC) Premium Green Leaf, Iceberg, and Romaine are sporadic; Markon Best Available (MBA) will be substituted as needed due to low weights
  • Impatiens Necrotic Spot Virus (INSV) presence remains minimal, and will not impact supply levels, or the market, as the Salinas and Santa Maria 2023 seasons end
  • The Arizona/California desert season will start in early to mid-November; quality and supply reports continue to be favorable
  • Huron, Oxnard, Santa Maria, and Salinas production will end in mid- to late November
