Author(s) : HINSCH R. T., KASMIRE R. F.

Summary

THE RESULTS OF PREVIOUS STUDIES BY THE AUTHORS HAVE SUGGESTED THAT SOME FACTORS HAVE A CONSIDERABLE, AND POSSIBLY UNFAVOURABLE, EFFECT ON THE ARRIVAL TEMPERATURE OF ICEBERG LETTUCE ; THESE FACTORS ARE CONNECTED TO LETTUCE TEMPERATURE ON LOADING, LOAD PATTERN AND DENSITY AND TRAILER CHARACTERISTICS AND CONDITION, THEY WERE INCLUDED IN A FORECAST FORMULA FOR ARRIVAL TEMPERATURES DURING HOT SUMMER MONTHS. THE AUTHORS DISCUSS THE PROCEDURE USED AND ITS ACCURACY.
