Summary

A relative humidity close to the saturation point is preferable. It reduces losses during storage (weight loss, pathogen contamination, etc.). The climatic conditions prior to harvest, as well as the method of harvesting are principal factors in limiting contamination risks. Storing carrots in cold rooms is advisable from a marketing point of view.
