A control circuit is configured to use monitored-crop information from a crop-monitoring airborne drone to automatically facilitate changes to the fresh produce display of one or more retail shopping facilities. The crop-monitoring information can include, for example, one or more of information regarding crop maturity, weed infestation, insect infestation, a plant disease indicator, parched conditions, irrigation status, land-area yield, temperature conditions, conflicting neighboring crops, and post-harvest waste. Using such crop-monitoring information the control circuit can assess at least the likelihood that a particular crop of a particular produce item will be available for display in the fresh produce display by a particular date, in a particular volume, and having a particular quality. This same information can also serve to determine a distance that such crops must travel to reach the retail shopping facility and hence whether the produce items are fairly characterized as being locally sourced.
