Live From the Fields: Harvest Delayed by Lettuce Ice. Arizona/California

A Markon Live from the Fields video about the winter season’s first significant harvesting delays attributed to lettuce ice in the Arizona/California desert growing region. Dehydration, epidermal blister, epidermal peel, and yellowing leaves are some of the most common defects associated with lettuce ice. Markon inspectors will be monitoring commodity and value-added supplies closely and will update further as needed. --Quality Assurance Director, John Galvez
