UPDATE: ORANGES
September 16, 2020
California Valencia oranges continue to tighten, especially small sizes, as growers battle the effects of extreme heat. Remaining fruit is dominated by 72- and 88-count sizes.
- Markon First Crop and Markon Essentials Valencia Oranges are available
- Small-size fruit (113- to 138-count oranges) will be extremely limited for the rest of the season.
- Substituting larger sizes (88-count stocks) may be necessary
- Valencia quality concerns include re-greening and softness
- California Navels will start shipping in late October.
