Live from the Fields: Lettuce Quality. Yuma, AZ

A Markon Live from the Fields video about the quality of the Yuma, Arizona season’s final iceberg and romaine fields. Elevated temperatures have caused heat-related defects such as increased insect pressure, large size, rib blight, and thrip damage in iceberg items from Yuma. Romaine quality remains very good with only light insect pressure and increased dirt at the core due to high. --Quality Assurance, Ismael Rios
