This work provides key practical and commercially-oriented information on the harvesting, handling, packaging and storage of fruit and vegetables, to ensure they reach the retailer in optimum condition, with the minimum of loss or spoilage. The book covers a wide range of fruits and vegetables, and brings together diverse data on storage life and recommended storage conditions in a single volume. It includes a full-colour banana ripening chart. It also provides all the technical information necessary to carry out a successful business. The book reviews the range of alternative practices to help guide the user in deciding which is the most suitable or appropriate. It presents backgrounds on the research on which commercial recommendations are made in order to support trouble-shooting.
