UPDATE: Iceberg Lettuce
October 19, 2017
The iceberg lettuce market is rapidly dropping. Supply exceeds demand.
- Markon First Crop Premium Iceberg remains sporadic; Markon Best Available will be substituted due to low weights
- Harvesting is underway in Huron, California (the San Joaquin Valley), increasing overall market supplies
- Weather in the Salinas Valley has been mainly favorable over the last two weeks, increasing volume in that region
- Expect the market to continue declining over the next several days before stabilizing in the low to mid-20s (through November)
