Summary

MEASUREMENTS HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT DURING THE TRANSPORTATION OF A MIXED LOAD OF VEGETABLES AND FRUIT, TO ESTABLISH WHETHER THE COMPLAINTS ON DISCOLORATION OF CUCUMBERS FROM GREEN TO YELLOW COULD BE DUE TO THE TRANSPORT CONDITIONS. DURING TRANSIT FROM HOLLAND TO SWEDEN THE TEMPERATURES, RELATIVE HUMIDITIES AND GAS CONCENTRATIONS HAVE BEEN MEASURED AND REGISTRATED. THE PRODUCTS APPEARED TO BE ARRIVED IN GOOD CONDITION, IN SPITE OF THE REMARKABLY HIGH ETHYLENE LEVELS OBSERVED IN TRANSIT.
