ShareAustralian postharvest technologies for fresh fruits and vegetables.
Author(s) : McLAUCHLAN R., BAGSHAW J.
Summary
With production areas usually at a considerable distance (e.g. 100 to 3500 km) from the major markets in the capital cities, appropriate systems and technologies are needed to minimize losses and maintain product integrity and quality while ensuring food safety. Aspects covered include field harvest (harvest aids, packing), packing houses (handling, grading, sorting, packing, cooling, pallet/unitization), storage and transport (refrigeration, mixed loads), and wholesale markets.
