UPDATE: ICEBERG

August 11, 2025

Iceberg market volatility persists. After declining this week, prices are expected to rebound next week as growers anticipate lower yields in upcoming lots.

  • Markon First Crop (MFC) Premium Iceberg is available; Markon Best Available (MBA) is being substituted as needed due to low weights
  • Quality is good; growth crack, insect pressure, internal burn, mildew pressure, and seeder are present in some lots
  • Lighter weights are forecast next week, industry-wide
  • Increased disease pressure is further reducing yields; levels of impact vary greatly from field to field
    • Markon is monitoring the potential for increased insect pressure, that may intensify disease spread and prevalence
  • Regional seasons in Colorado, Michigan, the East Coast, and Canada are ongoing; quality and yields are typical for each growing region
  • Pricing is expected to remain strong next week
