Never mind! I fixed it by using the full field keys instead of slugs. Here’s the working code:

if ( $items->have_posts() ) {
  $tax_var = get_terms('varieties_grown', 'hide_empty=0');
  $tax_var_array = array();
  foreach ( $tax_var as $tax ) {
    $tax_var_array[] = array('term_id' => $tax->term_id, 'name' => $tax->name );
  }
  while( $items->have_posts() ) {
    $items->the_post();
    $post_id = get_the_ID();
    if( have_rows('field_57d8b8c860d41')):
      while ( have_rows( 'field_57d8b8c860d41' ) ) : the_row();
        $variety = get_sub_field( 'field_57d8b8dc60d42' );
        $key = array_search( $variety, array_column( $tax_var_array, 'name' ) );
        if ( $key ) {
          $term_id = $tax_var_array[$key]['term_id'];
          update_sub_field('field_5894f9fbbad27', $term_id );
        }

      endwhile;
    endif;
  }
}
