Median of every convertible quote in the last 45 days. A crop appears here only when at least three quotes in Los Angeles use a pack with a real net weight.
Reported here, but not priceable by the pound
Los Angeles also reports cilantro, greens, lettuce and parsley, but quotes them in bunches or count packs with no net weight. Dividing one of those by a guessed weight is how you get a fake premium, so they are named rather than estimated.
