Summary

California nectarines, not treated with post-harvest fungicides, were commercially fumigated with methyl bromide and were shipped by van container to Japan. They were evaluated for condition after arrival. Shipments took from 15 to 18 days from the time they left the packing house until they cleared plant quarantine and customs in Japan. Fruit temperatures remained below 3 deg C during transportation, but were exposed to higher temperatures at both the US and Japanese ports. Quality results are given.
