Author(s) : GIMENEZ A., BAUZA M., ROBY H. R., WINTER P.

Summary

Green asparagus was used for trials; after harvest they were sorted and classified, immediately they were precooled by immersion in cold water to 0 deg C with 200 ppm of active chloride; then, they were conditioned in different storage conditions. During the storage, samples were taken periodically, and evolution of the fibrousness was studied. It is also demonstrated that modified atmosphere storage gives the best results for firmness degree.
